UNIVERSAL EXCLUSIVE: Irrefutable Proof Of #SurgicalStrike
On October 5, 2016, CNN-News18 aired a ‘global exclusive’ in which the channel essentially tricked Ghulam Akbar, a police officer in Mirpur, Pakistan occupied Kashmir, into stating that he knew of such a thing as the surgical strikes — conducted by the Indian Army and denied by the Pakistani government.
Newslaundry, by no means, has the resources of CNN-News18 at their disposal. But with our modest means, we decided to surpass CNN-News18 and conduct a ‘universal exclusive’. We tried, we fumbled; but ultimately, all we had to do was ask the right person (in an unconvincing accent): “Aur janab, kya chal raha hai?”
