Prasun Sonwalkar, London blasts, and blogs
Prasun Sonwalkar studied in Goa, at the People’s High School, I think. Got to know him when he was on the desk at Bhubaneswar (for the TOINS), and contributed to the Deccan Herald, where I was then employed. We met up via Debashish Munshi.
Just today came across his article July 7 was a ‘tipping point’ for British media. It’s about the July 7 blasts in London and how the media — and specially blogs — responded to it. Indo-Asian News Service concludes the article saying: Prasun Sonwalkar is a London-based journalist and a journalism teacher at the University of the West of England. He can be contacted at sprasun at yahoo.co.uk
