Bellur Ramakrishna has made collages of the front pages of various newspapers, Indian and foreign, on the way they dealt with the Bombay blasts and the day after.

I can bear print media atleast I do not see reportes sporting a faint smile when covering disaster news unlike in Television.
IMHO, Vijaya Karnataka has the best headlines.
Nice effort. VT and TOI have similar headlines on Day 1 and Day 2, VT shares the translated version of Vijaya Karnataka’s headline. Call it coincidence?
Deccan Herald, Prajavani, Indian Express, Kannada Prabha, Deccan Chronicle….are conspiciously absent…just a coincidence?
Kiran,
I made these from the e-papers availble on the net. those mentioned by you don’t have the e-paper version on the net. Hence the absence.
buddhi RK avare,
Deccan Herald avardu antu e-paper ide… dayavittu swalpa gamana kottu nodi
Anna NS Rao,
Gamana kottu nodirlilla. next collage maadovaga, gottaytu bidi, DH paper haakthini.
VK is always top in Headlines. Is this the contribution of vishi or Dytota?
Congrats Bellur Ramakrishna,
see how powerful is print mediaum.
Great collage!! Sad that the bombing was barbaric….
Congrats Ramakrishna for the good job. You have given us a look at the world print media, how it covered the ghastly action.
The serial train blasta that rocked Mumbai on 11/7 killing 185 people and injuring 439 are reminiscent of the notorious terrorism of 7/11. Terrorism raising its ugly head again reflects the stark truth as pointed out by Aristotle that ‘Man when perfected by law is the best of animals but bereft of law he is the worst of all!’ On seeing this terrorism Sophacles who said that ‘The world is full of wonders but nothing is more wonderful than man!’ would have rephrased his statement as ‘The world is full of dangers but nothing is more dangerous than man!’. This dastardly act of cowardice with a sinister design to aimlessly kill hundreds of innocent and unsuspecting people deserves condemnation in the strongest terms possible. May the government leave no stone unturned in curbing this menace of terrorism and go the whole hog to tackle it with an iron hand if necessary.
Dear all
Kindly visit my blog to find the same collage as above, but with Deccan Herald and Asian Age added.

Interesting…..no foreign papers in the “day after” collage. Tells us of the attention spans that the foreign medias have for India, or anything international for that matter.
the human life story carried by TOI was very good the captions of VK and Kprabha are always superb
Lovely collage Bellur Ramakrishna. Nice to see that you have put some unseen and unheard of newspapers and tabloids in the collage.(Eg:DNA, Today, The Charlotte Observer, The Seattle Times….)
Sad that people simply say what isnt there and don’t see what’s there. These guys dont see the white space in a paper, but only the tiny black spot.
Congrats and Good luck to you.
The page one of Mid Day (first edition, Mumbai) on June 12 and June 13 were brilliant.
is it me …or does any one else find different colors of the dupatta of the greiving lady …look at the photos on TOI and Hindu???…
KP, do papers also change the color of the pictures by mastering it ???
LOL…I know paper ( Journalists) changes colors ..LOL Vinay.
Hindu ,since it is from chennai hs chosen Pink .Havent you seen Tamil heroes wearing pink suits ?
TOI is red ..havent you seen Govinda/jeetendra wearing red suits?
Well no fun on the grieving lady ..she knows the pain of losing someone.
Our heart goes to her ..
I feel the dupatta is looking more pinkish because the guy in the printing department has added more ‘Magenta’ in the printer. The printing is done in CMYK mode mixing Cyan, Magenta, Yellow & Black in the right proportions. Even if one is more, red will look Pink, and Green will look blue.
Here is an expose by Vijay Times of August12th,under VT story on the ‘security breach’ again at our premier IISc,after the real one in Dec2005 when a reputed don was gunned down.Despite all security measures announced,the chief reporter of VT could easily ride in and plant fake explosives in departments and come out Uzi gun blazing from the same gate through which the real terrists allegedly escaped.No wonder they did not oblige the security board’Visitors to report to the security gate’!. Jokes apart why these are happening? Dont we learn lessons? Should our children lose the opportunity to go for higher learning in the absence of Centres of excellence? Is that the aim of terrorists? We shall ponder and discuss.
