Communal talk

IN Media Watch Briefs | 06/07/2017
Arnab Goswami has discovered Muslim appeasement in Basirhaat in Mamata Banerjee's state and hollered away about it for two nights in a row on Republic TV. On July 4 he thundered that the CM was turning West Bengal into fatwastan and asked repeatedly, "Is there Muslim appeasement in West Bengal?" The media was blacking out commmunal violence there he charged. On July 5  he snapped at a Muslim panelist on the show, "there is no Sharia law in this country." On Times Now, they were playing catch up, pursuing the same story vociferously. With bald communal talk on prime time TV where exactly are we headed?
