DNA Readers
Subramanian Swamy’s article Irresponsible & Islamophobic
Jul 18, 2011,
Readers react to Subramanian Swamy’s article ‘How to wipe out Islamic terror’ published in DNA, Mumbai, on July 16 and carried by New Age Islam on 21 July, 2011
It is extremely sad that you have allowed Swamy to write a hate speech in your paper. Such a piece has a place in some extreme right-wing publication one would have thought, not in a mainstream newspaper like yours.
Sure you might carry another article that counters Swamy’s article, and that might salvage the situation a bit, but it can’t undo the damage. The damage is that these kind of xenophobic views have now got respectability by getting carried in the DNA. I request you to issue an apology in your newspaper for carrying such an extremely offensive piece, so that people know such extreme views cannot be tolerated.
