THE STORY
“Oh no , not again!”
Every Indian sensitive to misportrayals of hindu thought in the media says this often, probably more than once a day.
Asia Times Online [ http://www.atimes.com] is one online journal I read regularly, for it’s excellent coverage on GeoPolitical issues, with writings by Intelligent & well qualified leaders in their fields, who are ignored by the mainstream media machine. Its readership is big, & is growing more & more. It is published from Thailand, & has a lot of writers from the Indian Sub-Continent, other parts of asia, and of course many experts from the “West”.
But even there, there are times I cringe at their writers’ casual inaccuracies about India. Yesterday was one such occasion.
