This-Claimer

The evidence to the apparent rise in the readership of the blog can be attributed to the fact that we are witnessing many anonymous comments mostly which I believe are from disgruntled PT staffers who have enlightened us about the insider stories.

But lets all get some points cleared. The objective of this blog is not to make personal attacks at anyone associated with the editorial committee (is there any?), nor in getting the editor or any staff for that matter replaced. Part of the reason is the obvious one that we can do nothing, the other being that we are simply not interested in doing so. The proprietors can do any sh.it they want with the newspaper - i.e. the so-called newspaper. We only revel in poking fun, have a good laugh (and improve writing skills ;-)) since we believe we deserve better as compared to what we get presently. If the editorial board does happen to read this blog, we can only hope they can take some hints instead of resorting to useless tactics like defending their 3rd page. But as long as they are sticking to the hum-nahi.n-suudre.nge policy, Pune Times remains a Cruel Waste of Forests.

Secondly, even though the anonymous comments are not unwelcome, they don't reflect the view of the contributors. So guys, easy on the personal attacks.

Till then, keep the comments coming in!

W0lf, neither are we Samskruti-Sanrakshaks nor does this blog have any affiliations with the Sangh Parivar!
Our only grudge is the useless piece of crap they print in the name of journalism. Pls take out some time to read the articles in the archives and also the comments folowing them, so as to make our stand clear.

hello folks, some of you know me..hell, all of u do :).Anyways, I dunno if u noticed this, but ur now ranked on the 3rd pg results(21-30) on Google. If ur already there, u can easily reach the first pg,(its difficult to be the first one). I want to be the one who does it, so make me a contributing member coz I'll probably need access to the blog. The first step is to use the text " Pune times",nothing else, in your link to this blog. I'll find out more n take the nec. steps

Ahh ... Actually, I'm on your side. Sorry if my mode of expression sounded offensive. I apologize unreservedly and unconditionally if they did. I thoroughly despise the Pune times as much as you really do.

Now that that's out of the way, wherever did I put that PT page 3 ???
