Yes. I think the author's perspective was limited to reading Indian dailies, which he says have more breath but less depth. But I remember that before Internet days, there were high-quality weeklies and monthlies, which offered more depth that Internet does today.
- scritic 16y agoIt's true that I was limited to reading Indian dailies when I grew up. But I believe the point stands. I think if your job is not in journalism or politics, then you have a limited amount of time left to read. And you can choose either to read magazines, which gives you a sample out of a wide spectrum of topics or you can go into depth on, say, the financial reform bill, and sacrifice "breadth."
