Look who's lecturing

IN Media Watch Briefs | 27/04/2016

At the 2016 Redink Awards Nite in Mumbai Minister Piyush Goyal lectured to journalists about the importance of  media getting its information right. "Correctly sanitized data" and  "accuracy of that data" are necessary he said. He should know! It's his government that relied on doctored videos to put JNUSU students Kanhaiya Kumar, Umar Khalid and Anirban Bhattacharya in jail. Yet, the Mumbai Press Club thought nothing of getting a minister from this government to be the Guest of Honour.
