A prominent news anchor told her viewers that the funding for the Norwegian reporter who tried to question Modi comes from George Soros. Andhbhakts and the infamous IT cell bots started a massive trolling campaign against her on social media, leading to her IG and FB accounts being blocked. Just a slip of a girl, but she proved exactly why India is #157 in the Press Freedom Index and Norway is #1. From 2014 onwards, our media has broken all records of shamelessness.
During Operation Sindoor, with sirens blaring in their newsrooms, they captured Karachi, Islamabad and even arrested Pakistan's Field Marshal Munir. The height of crassness is that when it all turned out to be fake, they did not even offer an apology to their viewers.
But I think that is par for the course. Their idiotic viewers deserve the kind of baloney that is disseminated by these partisan channels, including Aaj Tak, India TV, Republic TV, NDTV and the like.
The tragedy is that our courts, the self-regulating body of broadcasting and the government did not even raise an eyebrow when these anchors were broadcasting such sheer nonsense.
No wonder they continue to dish out claptrap and our addle-brained citizens continue to consume the dung masquerading as news.
