Your weekly dose of all the insanity that passes off as news on TV.
The PM’s #9baje9minute call was enthusiastically celebrated on TV news channels. Channels were literally celebrating Diwali, Navika Kumar couldn’t stop asking people to sing, and Deepak Chaurasia, well, couldn’t hold a candle.
When news channels weren't singing or praising Modi, they were spewing poison under the pretext of reporting on the Tablighi Jamaat.
Watch.
