Undavalli wins Round One

For the last two years, Ramoji's constant refrain (or boasting) has been: "I will give him (YSR) sleepless nights". His dream was to dislodge YSR. So he goaded his team into action and Eenadu went into overdrive, attacking the government on all counts -- corruption, inaction, criminal activities etc. Since we don't have sources in YSR's house we don't know how many, if at all any, sleepless nights YSR had. But we do know that Ramoji is spending sleepless nights now. We know. Cuase, last heard the man has formed an action team to contact Undavalli and broker a deal. In the interest of those engaed in the process, we cannot disclose the names. The reason for Ramoji's move?... The old man is feeling the pinch.. despite the overdose of confidence-building statements Eenadu and ETV ran endlessly, inflow of funds has thinned out! The first alarm bells! Congrats Undavalli.
SAILAJA TO HAVE A SON: All is not gloom for the Ramoji family. The family has big reason to cheer. The stork is about to deliver a Hazel-nut child. Like Cherie Blair, Sailaja, is about to deliver a son in her mid-forties! She is already the proud mother of two girls. The lady would be ecstatic when the bundle of joy arrives. The first son for Ramoji's eldest son.... hey, but how do we know that it's a son? Because they know it! And how do they know it? hmmmmm something is wrong... somebody underwent a sex-determination test.. right? Right. But that's wrong. Shhh... let's not talk about it lest Undavalli overhears!!
RAMOJI B-Day: Ramoji Rao celebrates his birthday tomorrow. Anybody wanting to wish him cannot do it.. because he is inaccessible.. more so in the current situation.. well you might try.. if you want to.. and many Eenadu employees would do that. Last heard, there was a plan to have a book published.. with portraits of Ramoji, sketched by all top artists in the country including M F Hussai.. We haven't had any news.. if it's ready for launch tomorrow... those of you who are not part of Eenadu should talk to anyone working there.... the one-upmanship by the top guys on this occasion would be quite a story to hear and enjoy... Meanwhile, we will have a RAMOJI SPECIAL tomorrow... Don't miss it. Would be a good read to all those who know him or want to know him!

hey oxymorons don't you think you can spend your time, energy and talent in something productive instead of gossiping and bringing up trivial issues. Try to make yourself useful to the society by rising issues related to the common man and their problems and bring about some change in the society for better.

Instead of creating gossip forum about the media itself. Why not open a forum where people can address their day to day issues, which the sensation monger media ignores due to all kinds of pressures and politics.

With reference to the comment that starts “hey oxymorons..”, I would like to say something. I couldn’t understand your problem, sir/ma’am. I am afraid you don’t have a news nose. If an ordinary woman goes for a “sex-termination” test, it is a big issue for Eenadu chaps. But when it comes to Ramoji’s daughter-in-law, it is their personal matter?
So, you want to advise the Vikram and co to stop this exercise and launch a social service organization? Vikram, don’t bother about such cynics. Go ahead. But, have checks and counterchecks before going to public. Am happy since I got a forum that talks about this bloddy, dirty AP media.
