The BBC World Service started broadcasts in Arabic in 1938. That is basically the dawn of modern international propaganda. The media has likely been a hotbed of lies for much longer but our main record of the situation is the media so the evidence is scanty.

With that background, the story here is that the network has been identified and catalogued. Someone somewhere in India is grossly negligent and/or stupid if there isn't an organised group pushing pro-India stories and the general existence of such a thing isn't newsworthy.

Nobody in india is watches NDTV because they are part of urban naxal propaganda.

you can see here https://www.barcindia.co.in/statistic.aspx

TRP of NDTV is lowest.

they do have enough Page Rank points on the internet but that too because of their 'tech' subdomain called gadgets ndtv.

ndtv was supporting osama and hizbul terrorists. they sympathize with jihadis.

BBC is known for their hinduphobia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_the_BBC#Anti-Hind...

ndtv is like bbc of india

In Mein Kampf (1925), Hitler was already complaining about British propaganda having lost Germany WW1, whether or not it was true. Of course, Hitler should be the last person to get away with calling propaganda unfair.
