And while he definitely deserves to be held accountable for his treatment of his women staff, Tehelka's journalism, or much of it, has been pioneering. Another "Sardar" whose work I have respected a lot is interviewed here: http://www.newslaundry.com/2013/11/nl-interviews-hartosh-bal-part-1/ http://www.newslaundry.com/2013/11/nl-interviews-hartosh-bal-part-2/ So why be dismissive of an entire community, even if just trying to make a point about someone else's typos/carelessness? If you replace the word "Sardar" above with "Goan" or "Goan Catholic", you can decide for yourself how fair such stereotypes are. FN PS: Accept your point about the misspelling of Tehelka though.
