Your weekly dose of all the insanity that passes off as news on TV.

What a busy week this was, as farmers set out to protest in Delhi over an MSP law, among other demands.

On the road to Delhi, thousands of farmers are camped at the Shambhu border in Haryana’s Ambala due to the police’s heavy barricading with cement blocks, barbed wires, and nails. This has led to us hearing about the most significant consequence of the protest: traffic.

The TV news anchors made the farmers’ ‘Dilli Chalo’ protest march sound like it was an alien invasion, and not citizens protesting in a democracy. Some news channels even called in “experts”, such as Suhel Seth, to discuss the “chaos” caused by protests.

Amid all this, some of our usual suspects followed our dear leader to Abu Dhabi, who was there to inaugurate the Middle Eastern country’s first Hindu temple. And as you know, Modi and temple together trump all other news.

Watch.
