Objectification of women on newspaper sites

I am not sure if this is the right circle for raising this issue but my concern is that when I send our 11 year old son to go on Indian news paper websites to look up for information regarding school assignments, they see indian actresses, foreign women celebrities in skimpy clothing and almost always sexually suggestive content.

Can anyone explain to me why newspaper put such content in the middle of regular news? (see attached) is this a way to make news paper site more addictive?

whatever it is, it makes it very hard to for us parents to have children use news sites without supervision. more

Parents are to demand monthly meetings in Schools & Colleges and conclude Resolutions necessary to the Chief Secretary & Central Women and Child Welfare Minister .
