Monday Musings

Newspapers have become an integral part of our lives,so much so,they resemble attributes of a personal mobile phone.Both are
  • indispensable
  • habit forming
  • informs what's happening
  • feel good to touch and hold
  • usable in loo
  • communication mediums
  • influences our behaviour
  • status symbols(the pink tabloids)
You tend to get fuzzy early mornings if newspapers is not to be find when you come out of your bedroom-the newspaper provides the cool comfort of keeping you in loop with all topics you care about-be it politics,sports,Page 3 masala,crosswords,editorials,day's prediction,TV schedule,movies,latest discounts and what not.
You'll be able to know a person better if you know which pages he reads daily-whether (s)he is sports loving,bollywood junkie or a true blue politician.The city's stores fate are made or mar by the shoppers,who tend to finalise day's shopping after looking at that day's newspaper and jumping on their impulse buying.
The tweets on a personality form a crescendo if he is in limelight.
Each newspaper has their own character and their die hard subscribers would not touch any other publication with a pole.
Indian newspapers tend to exhibit negativism - some more ,others less-maybe the masses like it this way-positive news does not sell.
