'The Hindu' looks the other way, as usual
I've been tracking the 'Letters to the editor' section of "The Hindu" for a week now, and to the best of my knowledge there has not been a single letter published on the rioting in Tibet.
See the 'Letters to the Editor' on 13 March, 14 March, 15 March, 17 March, 18 March, 19 March and 20 March.
Is it a case of censorship, due to the China angle, or did none of the newspaper's readers write a letter?

Jagadish,
Brilliant observation. When this happened, I was wondering if they would only publish certain pro-commie comments alone. But as you pointed out it appears they are doing a total whiteout from the readers.
Free press indeed !
