Jul 12, 2003:  TIME article on the Indian Prime Minister  
 
Last year TIME Magazine attained the rock bottom of ethics in journalism by writing one of the worst articles about the Indian Prime Minister Mr.Atal Bihari Vajpayee. This article was so poor and misleading that govt.of India had to protest with the TIME Magazine.

Today the same TIME Magazine and the same writer (Alex Perry) has written exactly opposite (a relatively positive) article about Mr.Vajpayee. Its worth reading when it comes from the TIME Magazine (where good articles on India are a rare commodity)

June 2002 - Asleep at The Wheel?

"As India and neighbor Pakistan put up their nukes, is an ailing and frail Vajpayee the right man to have his finger on the button? He drank heavily in his prime and still enjoys a nightly whiskey or two at 74. India's leader takes painkillers for his knees "

July 2003 - Top of His Game

"While it may stretch the limits of adolescence to anoint a 78-year-old as Asia's new comeback kid, there's little doubt that India's once fading leader has returned with a bang. Abroad, he's never been so well received"
