Kerala - Thiruvananthapuram   

Hailing Indian newspapers

Sreenath Sreenivasan, Dean of Students of Columbia Journalism School, who delivered a talk at Mar Ivanios College, had a word of praise for the booming Indian newspaper industry. Most students in U.S. universities want to work in Indian newspapers, he said. "The newspaper industry there is dying at the rate of six per cent every year. Every time I talk to a journalist there, I feel I am at a funeral ceremony," he said.
