The prevalent trend of fake news hit a new low when the online edition of a news channel announced actor Adhyayan Suman’s ‘suicide’.Acting swiftly the channel’s online section where this monstrous misinformation appeared has sent Shekhar Suman an apology and requested him to retract his tweets condemning the channel’s irresponsible report on his son.
However Shekhar Suman is in no mood to relent. Reacting to the apology he says to me, “We are not relenting at all. The damage caused by them cannot be compensated for by a mere apology. We are going all the way as far as possibly legally.We want this case to be an example for all those who put out highly damaging and defamatory news just for hits and TRPs. We want that they should think of how deeply damaging irresponsible reportage can be.”
