TV Newsance 333 | The Galgotiyapa of TV news

This week on TV Newsance, one university dominated the headlines: Galgotias University! Not because of a groundbreaking invention, but because a robotic dog they claimed to have developed on campus turned out to be a commercially available model from a Chinese robotics company.

First came glowing coverage of the AI ecosystem in Galgotias.
Then came confusion.
Then came outrage.
And finally prime-time takedowns.

But this episode isn’t just about one robot, one university, or one viral clip – it’s about how narratives get manufactured, how PR becomes journalism, how the media builds heroes and then publicly destroys them, and how an entire ecosystem rewards loyalty over scrutiny.

We also went to the AI summit ourselves, and what we found was very different from the viral clips. Beyond the controversy, several Indian teams were actually building practical AI tools designed for real-world impact: for hospitals, for farmers, and for Indian-language users.

Also Watch: 

➜ The Galgotias “AI dog” controversy – what the viral video missed.
