To me, these newspapers are their siblings in north and south India respectively. They possess loads of similarities. Simple layout, way different from exaggerated 'times', near-perfect editing, objective reporting and limited news of Tinsel Town - all make them stand a class apart. While The Hindu has lately succumbed to over-advertising, with its front pages no longer having news and instead, giving in to those ads by housing apartments for eg. 'Aparna Township' bla bla bla.... , The Tribune, on other hand, still gives importance to content. However, their Lifestyle supplement tries to go the wrong way by copying the 'Times' counterpart. Whatsoever, these 'Simple Fellas' definitely have a long and a revered history in their respective regions and they're definitely worth reading.
