Following a week’s break, TV Newsance is back with the worst of the worst on television news.

Channels queued up to applaud their one true love:  PM Modi, who inaugurated the new Parliament building on May 28. The usual suspects gushed so much over this historic occasion that they completely sidelined the wrestlers’ protest happening just a few kilometres away. 

When the protest finally got their attention, news stalwarts like Amish Devgan, Aman Chopra and Sudhir Chaudhary had very similar talking points – almost as if a toolkit had been shared with them. They argued that the wrestlers were being too political, too irrational, and that their medals belonged to India, not them alone.

Watch.

Complaining about the media is easy and often justified. But hey, it’s the model that’s flawed.
