TV Newsance 238: Ram Mandir prep in full flow, Godi media in full Modi Bhakti mode

This week, all our usual suspects and TV newswalas were busy preparing for the consecration of the Ram Mandir which will take place on January 22. Unsurprisingly, the coverage is more about Modi than about Ram. 

We got details about how Dear Leader will sleep on the floor and fast till the consecration. We also got to see the city of Ayodhya littered with posters of Modi and Yogi. Modi worship aside, primetime anchors also spent ample time bashing the opposition for boycotting the ceremony. 

Highlights include Anjana Om Kashyap’s useless updates, Sudhir Chaudhary’s internal complexes, and Aman Chopra’s tutorial on how not to report on the ground in Ayodhya as he interviewed Manish Kashyap, famous for getting arrested for spreading fake news, and Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh.
