I don't see any future of Indian Newspaper. Those days of gone when Newspaper made difference in society, now other than chasing actors and Gandhi family, they don't hane anything else to print or talk.

You are right, and nowhere is this more prominent than the Bennett Coleman controlled Times of India and The Economic Times.
The Times of India has successfully managed to turn itself into a tabloid, with headlines ranging from juicy Bollywood happenings to scandals from across the world.
The Economic Times will well on its way to be a mouthpiece for propaganda and sensationalization. Otherwise how would we know the millions of jobs that the Indians are taking away from the Americans, or how much they hate Indian workers. This is a big issue, and so i must be told of it every day in every headline and with all the spice to it.
what a shame.
