Quality goes down each passing day. If we could have only a decent portal that gives indian news with less advt. and less crappy news than rediff.. i will definitely block this site from my comp once for all.
It has become more and more money oriented nowadays with lots of pop up and stereaming voice video advts and hell lot of nuisance. Some are very cheap. There was a headline a few days back. " What arundhadhi roy should write about? "
as if arundhathi roy is going to listen to us and start writing what majority rediff viewers say.
Most of the times there is nothing outrageous as the headline says. And sometimes totally opposite.
For ex. "Kaif demands reason for ouster". In the article Kaif seems very polite and he acknowledges that he has to perform well but when you look at the headline you know how it seems. Seems like they have decided to put a permanent end to kaif's career with this headline. They dont understand the immense responsibility they have and the impact their articles have on people.
And a few months back some guy dressed up like Gandhiji and did a cheap pole dance video. You should have seen the immense coverage these guys had given him. These are the news that deserves no attention. He must be a relative of someone in Rediff.
Also when all other news papers are asking people to exercise restraint and maintain peace, rediff publishes an article "injustice to karnataka". this is like adding fuel to fire. Whats the need to publish the next day? They could have given a few days and analyse and write to allow people's temper to go gone down.
The Message boards were unedited and all indians beginning to call themselves in words that cannot be published. There is nothing to check that and nothing edited. I am sure the viewership in that few days would have incresed drastically but at the cost of spreading hatred among people.
It seems like rediff anyhow wanted to increase viewership to get more advts and make more money.
They try to create news but they only create nuisance.
Come on Rediff for long term success sacrifice a few dollars and rupees and be honest with yourself before you write something. Do something that makes the nation and readers proud of you.
