In a brilliant start to the slideshow, the first caption reads:
Is there anything like censor board in American football??You have to love the punctuation. Not one, but two question marks, indicating the profound philosophical implications of this question. Impeccable grammar, too - the good folks at HT are reinventing the English language every day (or should I say "This people is changing Angrezi every day, yaar!"?). To top off the carnage, the World Cup slideshow begins with a picture of a rugby league (not the same as American football) game.
It doesn't improve, either. What follows is a bunch of photos from the last World Cup, which wouldn't be so bad if the captions weren't so god-awful. Judging by the writing, it seems that "Take Our Kids To Work Day" has been taken a little too seriously by this paper. So, in the spirit of the occasion, let me ask:
Is there anything like editors in Hindustan Times???Three question marks, because mine is more important.
Once again, for HT's future reference:
American Football
Rugby League
