Tarring
political opponents is nothing new. We have seen that in elections across the
world. This happens even more during war-time. There’s that old story that the
USSR and British propaganda put out about Adolf Hitler. In the middle of the
20th century, Soviet and British propaganda made popular the idea that Adolf
Hitler had only one testicle
(and was thereby less of a man). But when a series of lies and untruths are
peddled not just by a political party but also by the media it becomes a
criminal witch-hunt. This is precisely what the media has been doing with Narendra Modi for over a decade now.
The latest being a “Puppy” story
that was taken out of context to make a villain out of him. Chief perpetrators
among the liars are Times Now and
many individual media celebs.
Modi
responded to a question on his feelings about deaths in the 2002 riots by
saying that one feels sad even if a
Puppy comes under a wheel and therefore his sadness over the incident and the
deaths. That is not a quote but exactly what he meant. Trust the media and some
jokers to quickly distort it read as equating
Muslims to Puppies. Earlier Digvijaya Singh had equated Indian Mujahideen
to all Muslims in his quest to appease his vote bank. Now, the journalist in
question was Sruthi Gottipati of Reuters who carried the interview.
Therefore, everyone is asking the question why Shruti deleted this tweet of
hers which clarified the actual context of Modi’s statement and directly
slammed the Indian media:
So why did
she delete it? We’ll get to that. In the meantime let’s see the sequence of
events led by tweets from Reuters and Sruthi. These are the two tweets:
The tweet by
Sruthi was at 3.05pm on July 12 and
the one by Reuters at 3.35pm. You
can be assured that even before Sruthi had tweeted about it she would have let
out information of the Modi-interview coming up to all her friends in the media
laced with special attention to the
Puppy comment. If you read her tweet it mentions only the Puppy under the
wheel so you can understand what particular aspect of the interview she was
trying to peddle without the context.
This helped the media cronies of the Congress, the Congress party and other
assorted doormats such as Javed Akhtar
to extend the lie that Modi had equated Muslims to Puppies and scream about it
for the rest of the evening.
NDTV Group
Editor Barkha ‘Evolver’ Dutt wonders
how a story about an encounter case has gone virtually gone unnoticed. Well,
Barkha seldom looks inward or introspects about the pathetic coverage of NDTV.
With Uttarakhand reeling under disaster NDTV used fake videos to report the
tragedy. At the peak of the tragedy Sreenivasan
Jain was peddling lies about the Ishrat encounter case. She herself was
also tweeting the Puppy story without verifying facts as did her “alleged” news channel report it too. So
who’s talking and acting like Mother Goose peddling fairy tales? Huh? Didn’t the stupid fools in the media
also do the same thing with the Modi “Rambo
Act” story of the man saving some 15000 lives? After some three weeks TOI
offers a clarification instead of an apology for the LIE they distributed:
Remember
Reuters is a former partner of the TOI group. TOI is mortified? I believe this
TOI-let roll should be mummified for its excesses. Their pathetic propaganda is
further exaggerated in criminal proportions by a moron who passes off as Arnab Goswami who passes off as a
journalist. And where peddling lies is concerned can the media’s first and original bimbo be far behind. Her
outrage seems like her own modesty has been outraged. Naturally, the bimbo
tweeted the following without bothering to actually check the story or what the
context was. And then this Numero Unee grandly claims that the “Media bias against Modi is a myth”.
Add that to another lie from her and her extremely “biased” and anti-Modi
channel.
So why did
Sruthi Gotipati delete her tweet which abundantly clarified the Puppy story?
One thing comes out clearly is that she is another of those novices on Twitter
and Internet who still hasn’t learned that footprints on the net can’t be wiped
out that easily. Even otherwise people pretending to be journos have
demonstrated their dumbness with regular frequency.
Deep Throat tells me that it was Reuters themselves who
pressurised Sruthi to delete her tweet. Because: A)
They received adverse messages from their media peers because the tweet damages
the credibility of their own Hammam. B)
They discovered that while they were otherwise not so known in India a
controversy fuelled by a Modi interview, even with a lie, helps them gain
prominence. C) Sruthi’s media
friends who were exposed called her and lambasted her. All three are true.
It is not
certain if Reuters were under pressure from the Congress party or the Govt to
continue allowing the controversy using a lie to flourish. Who could have
thought Puppy-love would one day be reduced to Puppy-Lie by the ever-loving,
err… ever-lying Indian media? These are the shameless poodles of the Congress
and the GOI lying about Puppies.
So, is
Narendra Modi complaining? Not at all! In the end, like all the elections in
Gujarat, he WINS. The TOI Rambo-15000 fraud stands exposed. The Congress
spends hundreds of crores to feed bones to their media-poodles and yet Modi
garners all the media time. In the end, their Puppy story was also exposed as a fraud. He wins again!
