The order of abuse is known, even formulaic. An invective is preceded or followed by the reminder of where the migrant is originally from. It is somewhat invisible due to being too mainstream, and has been this way for decades now. ✍️ @anandvardhan26 newslaundry.com/2023/03/21/w…

What ‘they’ did not tell you about home loan interest rates. When a home loan tenure touched infinity. When a home loan tenure almost touched 55 years. Why do home loan tenures shoot through the roof and what you can do about it. In #Easynomics. livemint.com/mint-top-newsle…

I'm proud and excited that after nine months of reporting on the death and legacy of Indian journalist Gauri Lankesh, we are ready to publish the explosive world-wide investigation. Stay tuned. "Killing the journalist, won't kill the story."
1 journalist was murdered. 100 continued her work on fake news. Forbidden Stories and 30 media outlets teamed up to reveal the deadly disinformation industry, which threatens global democracy. 🔴 New revelations Tuesday. #StoryKillers
