When you say nothing at all...
Now that The Telegraph has gone ahead and done it - question is - Why should I use my money to know about Bikram Ghosh's eclectic tastes in women ? Eclectic or eccentric - they should by definition only matter to the lady with whom he is currently involved as opposed to the world-at-large.
Even about a year back, the newspaper ('Spot The Leader') was perhaps a bit more staid and reserved while choosing news. With a spate of fashion fiestas and a healthy dose of optimism, the back pages have now been reserved for 'backless cholis at the discos'. Runa in her blog Through Myopic Eyes managed to create a comment cascade through a mail exchange with Nelanjana Bhowmick (?). The point of the discussion is that - does absence of news mean that un-newsworthy take up the space ?
