The Facts:
Two online media channels issued public apologies to Nithyananda Peetham and Paramahamsa His Divine Holiness Nithyananda for reporting and propagating false information about the Anti-Hindu attacks faced by Nithyananda Peetham, Trishulam Adheenam in Chennai.
THE CULPRITS:
The two online media channels, namely 5 Dreams Media and NewsTamil.in had aired false content that misrepresented the violent and threatening attacks that were done against Sannyasis and devotees of Paramahamsa Nithyananda, and also against the physical property of the temple owned by Nithyananda Peetham at Trishulam in Chennai. Anti-Hindu forces have been maliciously attacking and vandalising the property and residents of the Hindu temple and monastery.
The two channels filed affidavits declaring that they had made these claims mistakenly and had not intended to damage or harm the image of Paramahamsa Nithyananda. They admitted to copying and sharing the falsified content from other vested interest media sources.
As an admission of guilt, the two media channels offered their Public Apology in the form of legal affidavits. They also committed to share the truth about Paramahamsa Nithyananda in the future and also report on the great social services he is performing towards society.
While airing the false content in their respective channels the media houses are so inhuman that they didnt bother about the extent of damage they are creating in terms of property, resources above all, the human emotions, religious sentiments hurt. After the sanyasis file complaints, fought for justice for months and got the judgement in their favour, the the media houses just issue public apology and this is not justified for the amount of pain and suffering our sanyasis went through…
