A blog… called penpricks

leave a comment »

A blog focussing on journalists and journalism in Goa. “Discover the rotund flanks and the shaggy underbelly of the Goan media. And of course, the rare honest rib.” Check it out at http://www.penpricks.blogspot.com/

Their first couple of posts are here:

WWWW & H

W (WHEN) — As of today
W (WHERE) — Over a sticky piece of Kitkat and a spiked lime soda
W (WHY) — Frustrated at the way we are and what we appear to be.
W (WHAT) — Moderated by two Goan journos. Forum for placing issues on record, which are otherwise only discussed.
H (HOW) — Readers and journalists (if at all there are any), pls write to penpricks@gmail.com any Goa media related wrongs, grievances, ills and praise, where need be.

THE SEASON’S BEGUN

Electionsannounced, its time for Jeckyl to don the robes of Hyde. Read in acouple of days bout the innocuous Rs 1,000 tip-off to journos by anelected representative for a constituency development news report.

Will it be fair? Will it be regular? Will it be even-handed? Or will it need to be defamatory to make its point? Your guess is as good as mine…
