Telegraph blasts Hindustan Times' coverage

On its editorial page, the Telegraph blasted HT's coverage and pointed out the errors in the story published on the banned Students' Islamic Movement of India (SIMI).

The story 'The thirteen faces of terror' was published in HT on the nation page on April 2. Check the errors and lack of balanced coverage in the report highlighted by the Telegraph's Mukul Kesavan.

It may be termed as healthy criticism. and might check the habit of sensationalism which the newspapers seem to have borrowed from the round the clock TV News Channels.
