Scrapping on camera

IN Media Watch Briefs | 21/11/2016

Last week Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal got into a royal fight on camera with two BBC Hindi journalists who continued to argue back even as he lost his cool with them and began to  speak directly to the camera, wagging his finger at it. The fight was over Kejriwal’s assertion that 55 people had died as a result of standing in queues after demonetization, whch his  BBC interviewer chose to contest.  His collegue too chirped in later to defend the BBC when the CM began to denigrate it.
