State of Tamil Mags

Identical cover pages (it has to be one of the top 5 heroes or heroines), identical columns, identical columnists & identical gossips to name a few. If you dig deep, you might be able to spot some difference in the newsstand prices. Why can't we merge all of them and save some paper?

Sample of 2 recent cover pages:

  • Kaps,
    I'm reminded of recent Outlook and India Today covers that featured identical top stories...perhaps that bug, like the avian flu, is spreading in media circles, too?

  • @Ravi,
    I think it was Bush in the cover page.

    @Vikram,
    Thanks for the link...will take a look.

    @Dreamchaser,
    as i mentioned, top 5 heroes and heroines occupy the cover every week.....so Asin's photo should be there once every 10 weeks.
