Fake journalism to malign India & CWG!
In my circle of friends, I've been among the most vociferous critic of M/s Kalmadi & co - and a staunch supporter of the way our media has been highlighting the entire gamut of corruption, nepotism, incompetence, et al.
However, I was shocked by this instance of a fake report about a purported security breach. The whole thing has been so well-chronicled that it doesn't need a separate comment from me.
Do read on and be shocked!
Reporter walked past a thoroughfare barricade with an empty case to create security scare in Delhi, according to this rather thorough media watch report.
In effect, what it says is:
1. The suitcase shown to us on TV was an empty case with just foam inside, not laden with explosive
2. The detonator was a dummy
3. The so called explosive was ammonium nitrate, a common fertiliser
4. He never entered any games venue but just crossed a traffic barricade on a main road away from any games venue.
