RE:RE:How can state control news channels?

Another indication that the footage of Tehlka is scripted is:

- The footage of some subjects verbatim repeat factually incorrect allegations that have been around only in anti-modi propaganda.

1) One subject claims to have been personally garlanded by Modi - but Modi had not visited that place. How could he be garlanded if modi never visited that place? But he is repeating same colloborative confession that anti-modi propganda has allged in the past

2) Another subject claims that Modi gave them freehand to riot for 3 days. That allegation too has been around that Modi did not call for army for 3 days and let the riots run for 3 days. But riots began on 28th Feb and army was flag marching in Ahmedabad on 1st Mar 9am. What propagandists forgot is that Feb month did not have 29th 30th & 31st. But how can a rioter repeat the same error if it was not scripted? Shoot at sight orders were given on 28th at 2:30pm, the very day riots had started. Hundreds of rioters died at police hands as a result. On the very day riots began(28th Feb), police had shot dead 10 hindus & wounded 16 hindus with bullets. So where is the free hand given by Modi? So subject in Tehlka footage is merely repeating the often-repeated accusation of the anti-modi media.

One guy is supposed to have been hacked to death, but he had actually died of bullets. Another guy's daughter is supposed to have been raped but she happened to be living in USA at that time!

There are more gems like this.
