Скачать или смотреть Vote Chori: Amit Shah vs Rahul Gandhi vs TV news anchors | Who’s fooling you? TV Newsance 311

This week on TV Newsance, a lot went down! From the opposition tearing up Amit Shah’s bills in parliament, to BJP leader Rekha Gupta being attacked at an event. Thankfully, anchors didn’t over-sensationalise this assault — but remember how they covered the attack on Arvind Kejriwal 10 years ago? From “the leader voters love to hit” to “chunavi chaata”, we revisit slapstick journalism at its worst.

Then there’s the never-ending “vote chori” allegations. Rahul Gandhi’s allegation has dominated headlines — but we break down:
1. The weak spots in the opposition’s claim
2. The valid concerns that should actually be discussed

But for Godi anchors, none of this matters. They finally got their scapegoat — a wrong tweet by CSDS’s Sanjay Kumar. Suddenly, our fake-news champions discovered a love for fact-checking! A wrong tweet was used to discredit all concerns over Indian elections. We break down why that is flawed.

Meanwhile, CSDS surveys show the real story: public trust in the Election Commission is slipping.
All this and more in this week’s Newsance. Watch till the end — and tell us what you think in the comments!
