Interests

JOURNALISM IS interesting. This also happens to be Dinesh Wagle’s job. But he is interested in every interesting things! Talking to strangers, surfing the Web, Tweeting and blogging are also in the list. Reading newspapers and magazines is part of his job.

Dinesh Loves News

Yes, one can easily say that Dinesh is a news junkie. He will happily go for a good newspaper over food if he has to choose. The WW Web sometime makes him forget everything.

Media Favorite

Newspaper: Kantipur (Nepali daily), (where he works)

New York Times (which he reads on the web)

Magazine: Time Magazine, National Geographic

Columns: Used to love “Coffee Guff” by Narayan [Wagle] in Kosilee, weekly supplement of Kantipur when the column was regular in the 90s.

Dinesh also likes to read articles by Mike Moore, an American media personality.

TV Programs:

Click Online in the BBC World

Websites:

Google, Twitter

Relationship with Books

Not very sound but Dinesh reads occasionally. His favorite thriller writer is John Grisham. The Client is Grisham’s most exciting thriller that Dinesh has read. Dinesh found Lajja, a novel, by the Bangladeshi literary figure Taslima Nasrin also a thought provoking fiction. He liked Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns. A Nepali novel, Maita Ghar, by Lain Sing Bangdel made him cry. The success story of Collin Powell, which Dinesh read in Powell’s autobiography, My American Journey, is inspiring.

Belief in the God

Dinesh follows Hindu traditions because he was born and raised in a family, which considers Hindu as the religion, tradition and the culture. Dinesh equally respects other religions and thinks there is only one God. Be it Christ or Shiva; Vishnu or Buddha or Mohammad.
