Riding on TOI

IN Media Watch Briefs | 18/10/2010
Hindustan Times brings out a 12-page A4 size weekly supplement called HT Dwarka every Thursday. That's not surprising. Dainik Jagran also brings out a similar supplement every Sunday. What's surprising is HT's mode of delivery -- it falls out of Thursday's Times of India every week. Meanwhile, the Times of India continues to force readers to buy its spiritual supplement The Speaking Tree every Sunday. Times executives say it is optional and that readers can tell their agents not to deliver it. But the news agents say it comes as part of the package and they can't be removing it from every newspaper.
