Arnab G denies getting security cover

IN Media Watch Briefs | 24/10/2016
Oh dear. Apparently those of us who believed the Hindustan Times story about Arnab Goswami of Times Now being given Y category security cover because of perceived threats to him from Pakistan-based terrorists, were wrong. Newsminute.com says  the anchor labelled the report  as "bizarre and beyond ridiculous" and "sources in Times Now" told The News Minute that no security was either asked or by Goswami or offered by the government. The HT story was based on an anonymous home ministry source.    Indian Express  also had the story the next day, attributing it to HT!
