''Video से छेड़छाड़ कर झूठ फैला रहा चैनल'' | भड़की Congress का Nadda को Letter | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_Z3yw_pvxw Jul 3, 2022
''मैं ये जानकर स्तब्ध हूं कि आपकी पार्टी के कुछ सहयोगियों ने जानबूझकर एक चैनल पर प्रसारित हुई एक शरारतपूर्ण रिपोर्ट साझा को किया है। वास्तविक वीडियो में राहुल गांधी उनके वायनाड कार्यालय पर एसएफआई द्वारा की गई हिंसा के संबंध में टिप्पणी कर रहे थे, लेकिन चैनल की ओर से उसे जानबूझकर और शरारतपूर्ण ढंग से काट-छांट करके इस प्रकार से प्रस्तुत किया गया, जैसे कि यह टिप्पणी उदयपुर में कन्हैया लाल की जघन्य हत्या के संबंध में थी''

In the video, PM Modi can be heard saying "“We have taken the initiative to create clusters for potatoes. A few months ago, we made a big policy related to the export of agricultural produce. I make gold from potato…and the country will get foreign exchange also"

Kanhaiya Lal’s killing & arrest of Alt News co-founder Zubair  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2Y80O-1ghc 2 jul2022
This week, the news of Hindu tailor #KanhaiyaLal’s beheading in #Udaipur by two extremist Muslim men, Gaus Mohammad and Mohammad Riyaz Akhtari, hit headlines. One would think there was nothing to “debate” about such a crime, but when does news TV disappoint?
Times Now, where the entire #NupurSharma fracas started, invited a non-expert who masquerades as a CPI spokesperson and political analyst. He justified the murder by questioning the victim. We explain how such “experts” and “fake spokespersons” help TV news anchors create a perception that some people in the opposition support the murder. Meanwhile, Rahul Shivshankar wondered if people like Gauri Lankesh, Narendra Achyut Dabholkar and Govind Pansare should be beheaded for insulting Hindu gods and if India should legalise beheadings. We explain why it would be hard to behead people who are long dead, and why Times Now remains the classiest of all channels.
Arnab Goswami cheered the arrest of #MohammadZubair of Alt News. We look at why many of India’s prominent news anchors love to hate Zubair.

India’s Adani’s group, its proximity to prime minister Narendra Modi, and its influence over the Sri Lanka government has been at the centre of a political controversy unfolding in Sri Lanka over the last five days. We (newslaundry) tracked India’s top business papers over 5 days.  Modi-Adani controversy barely figured Why wouldn’t a business media house report on a controversy involving Modi and the Adani group?

https://www.newslaundry.com/2022/06/14/2022/03/31/why-indian-medias-coverage-of-sri-lanka-crisis-is-partial by Kartik Kakar Senior Sri Lankan journalist Nalaka Gunawardene, who lives in Colombo,  points out that “global wire services have been generating impressionistic coverage from Sri Lanka in recent weeks”. An example is the often used short-cut, blaming the “Chinese debt-trap” for the country’s current problems. He points out that this is “simply not supported by data: international sovereign bonds issued since 2007 make up over a third of Sri Lanka’s foreign debt, and borrowings from multilateral agencies are larger than from any bilateral source”. Reducing the explanation to either blaming one country, or the pandemic, paints a very partial picture.

Additionally, Gunawardene says, “I so wish the Indian journalists and broadcasters who visit Sri Lanka for short periods of time on crisis coverage would expand their circle of sources beyond the usual suspects in official and cocktail circuits. We are tired of seeing the same few (well-connected) academics and activists giving the same or similar soundbites for years. Sri Lanka now has a new breed of smart and articulate younger economists, political scientists, international relations analysts and others, who offer refreshing new analyses of entrenched problems. Why not seek out and capture their views, too?”

Prime Time: Are Media Houses Suppressing News About Controversial Remarks By BJP Leaders?
 6 Jun 2022 Prime Time With Ravish Kumar - June 6, 2022: Ravish Kumar takes a look at the reporting by leading newspapers about the controversial remarks by two BJP leaders about Prophet Mohammad. Several Indian ambassadors in the Gulf region were summoned in a single day by the foreign ministries in their host countries while others issued strong statements condemning the remarks. As Qatar and Kuwait summoned the envoys in Doha and Kuwait City respectively, the Taliban regime in Afghanistan condemned the comments by BJP's Nupur Sharma and Naveen Kumar Jindal. Saudi Arabia and Bahrain too have reacted to the comments.

 Why allow them to be called Fringe!

Wasnt there calls within India for control of hate speec, extreme speehes or calls to Govt to control such elements...

Apr 23 2022 note from  I & B Ministry asking for caution..

Asli fringe kaun? Look who’s keeping Nupur Sharma company in BJP’s ‘fringe’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6wcAVcdhjg Jun 7, 2022

After now-former BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma’s controversial comments against Prophet Muhammad drew backlash from several countries, India’s governing party suspended her, while the foreign ministry dismissed her views as “fringe”. If her Muslim-baiting remarks make Nupur “fringe”, how should we describe these BJP leaders who have publicly expressed similar views? As a, ahem, Times Now panellist once told a BJP spokesperson, “Every party has a fringe, your party is the fringe.”
