Indian media outlets, including India Today and NDTV, have apologized for airing a doctored video of Pakistani analyst and former diplomat Zafar Hilaly, wherein due to editing, he appeared to be supporting Indian claims of hundreds of casualties in the 2018 cross-border aggression by New Delhi.
The video was edited in such a way that Zafar Hilaly, the former Pakistani diplomat, who regularly takes the Pakistan army side in TV debates, was shown going against the zero casualties claim made by Islamabad at that time.
But a fact-check by Alt News found that the comments were misreported. Hilaly also tweeted a video saying his statement was spliced and edited.
Indian TV channel, India Today tweeted,
"CLARIFICATION
It's been brought to our notice that the segment in the video, showing a former Pakistani diplomat claim that India killed many in #Balakot airstrikes, is doctored. It is our responsibility to bring this to the notice of our audience. We regret the error."

Damage control. The reputation and credibility of the indian media is so damaged and destroyed internationally that even the most rabid, racist and extreme right-wing sanghi doesn't even believe them anymore.

Take legal action

 

[masterchief_mirza]

Sue the living crap out of these FILTH and their "free media" who think "freedom" means freedom to tell lies. What a joke of a country that doesn't understand the first thing about democracy and free media. They are as corrupt as they always have been.

Any Indians reading this thread - and I know you all will late at night through gritted teeth - don't preach ever again about your comedy of a "free media" circus.

Clearly, someone has sought legal recourse over this misrepresentation by numerous outlets. Someone smart, possibly the interviewee himself, has taken them to task with a cease and desist notice. It's not enough. Sue them.

Fake news peddling nation of incels. Learn your lesson now. Pakistan will hold you to account.
