TV Newsance 270: Anchors celebrate rise of gangster Bishnoi, India-Canada all-out tussle
Kalyug has arrived on our TV screens with news anchors and right-wing commentators celebrating the rise of a new national hero — gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. Move over Dawood Ibrahim; the new sheriff in town has got a Sanatani twist. And our anchors glorified the criminal, tossing journalistic integrity out the window.
Meanwhile, Times Now showcased the gold standard of warzone reporting by getting us the facts about Israelis’ love for Bollywood. And on the diplomatic standoff between India and Canada, news anchors put the latter in its place with their graphics, commentary, and thinly veiled threats of violence.
And as no action-packed week is complete without a healthy dose of misinformation, we found Sudhir Chaudhary spreading debunked conspiracy theories about the Bahraich communal violence on primetime.
This and a lot more, watch.
