There is a video clip from an under-informed and over-enthusiastic news channel that is doing the rounds these days in YouTube and social media platforms that is screaming itself hoarse that India has been flooded with a new kind of fake plastic tablets that can ruin the health of patients who take them. Yes, most news channels these days are just that — under-informed and over-enthusiastic. And, that is why we find their reporters trying to make a point by shouting and screaming at the top of their voices instead of just narrating their news in a composed and dignified way. What cannot be supported by quiet facts can certainly be supported by high decibel sound!
