I wonder if buying and aiding Carbide, killer of over 600000 people in Bhopal & a declared absconder from Indian courts, amounts to sedition
Today, as the #BhopalGasDisaster turns 38, we learn that Carbide used dummy firms to discreetly trade in India after it was declared absconder. Several govt firms bought Carbide products through backdoor channel for 14 yrs. #Dow-Carbide's toxic legacy continues.

So simple and basic. Yet sounds revolutionary. Thanks to the times we live in.

This was my message to the media going into 2020. Your responsibility is to the truth, not to "giving both sides" when one side is lies. And you cannot expose lies without spreading them. So repeat the facts. https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/1210268371725324288

Especially news channel anchors who fail to check panelists peddling half-truths or blatant lies and invite them repeatedly in order to appear ‘balanced’.

In absolute agreement with @Kum_Sambhav@twitter.com
Look out of the window at pouring rains, rather than give print or TV space to the rain-deniers. And have the courage to tell readers/ viewers that it is raining, even while sarkari spin-masters say its a drought!

Dear newspapers, giving space to all kind of opinions on edit pages in one thing. Giving space to lies, despite being aware of them, is another. Please start fact-checking columns. Here is another minister lying, in one of the most prominent edit spaces among Indian newspapers.

This could be a really good thing or an absolute cesspool of corruption based on how it is implemented. BTW, the issue is not discovering NCEs or NMEs, it is the capacity to manage the risk during development.
