(Reuters) - Bangladeshis read newspapers from a roadside vendor in the morning in Dhaka November 15, 2005. Journalists in Bangladesh admit their profession is not always practised for the right reasons. Businessmen often start newspapers simply to gain access to the corridors of power; there are around 130 dailies published in Dhaka alone. Corruption is everywhere -- Transparency International ranked Bangladesh bottom of its global corruption index in each of the past five years -- and journalism is no exception.
