[BangPypers] Pyladies Bangalore in Times of India

[s|s]

Learning thing or two about news flows, I would say its not diluted or
distorted, it falls into a template. Like some respectable occidental
reporter gets off on a port in Africa an announces "I would like talk to a
women who has been raped and can speak English". News has already been
written and what does not fit that template is thrown away.
