### 4/5 — Used to be great

*2014-05-23*

Came across this magazine when i was looking for some news magazines to read on a flight. Read one issue and i am hooked. The range of topics they cover is superb. Unmatched. But now a days, its slowly becoming like other news magazines. Monotonous. I suspect its because of the change of leadership. I see prasannarajan as its editor. I used to skip pages of his columns in india today.the reason being they are unreadable and sleep inducing beyond few lines. Dear open magazine, please bring your original stuff back.
