NYT, ABC News lie about PM Modi not attending 'press conferences'

Op India  

On Thursday, leftist news outlets such as The New York Times, and ABC News tried to discredit Prime Minister Narendra Modi by falsely claiming that he did not attend any press conference since 2014. The New York Times made the outrageous claims ahead of PM Modi’s joint press conference with US President Joe Biden at the White House. In a tweet, it claimed, “If Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi responds to questions along with President Biden at a news conference, it may well be the first time since he was first elected in 2014 to do so.” Screengrab of the tweet by The New York Times The tweet was accompanied by a propaganda piece, written by a ‘journalist’ named Mujib Mashal. Screengrab of the tweet by ABC News ‘Journalist’ Mary Bruce falsely claimed, “That is the first time in Prime Minister Modi’s nine-year tenure that he has ever taken a live question like this from a reporter in a press conference.” What is the Truth In reality, Prime Minister addressed a similar joint press conference, way back in 2015, when Barack Obama was the President of the United States.
