AmitLThanks for visiting again. I envy you for getting RD for just 10 bucks. Is your magazinewallah not wanting to expand in other cities?

Nileash, I too was surprised for a while with stats.

Praney, especially news channels consider their viewers semi literate persons. I have written to you. And I am curious too what email you have received. :-)

You wrote everything that used to come to my mind when I have to watch our ill channels especially our so called news channels. Only the difference is that I merely kept irritating watching those people and you did a positive thing to write it down. Reader's Digest is really one of the best magazine available these days. Though I have not read it past some time but I did read that magazine a bit in my school days. Great !

Magazines like Life Positive also have a niche segment. However, most magazines meant for general readership would like to include a mix of politics, glamour, sensuality and spirituality. This way the readership expands across the spectrum. A sort of neighbourhood supermarket. Moreover, people who are doing the positive things usually dont hold press conferences and neither do they give press notes. Then it becomes hard-work for the reporter to dig out the story. :o) Readers Digest appeals to a select group of people. Magazines like Life Positive also have a niche segment.

I,of course,still get it's ole issues whenever I am in Baroda,from our friendly neighbourhood magwallah-gives them for 10 bucks or so. Cheers and TC.
