Shashi Tharoor Called Arnab Goswami's Republic TV A "Toilet Roll" In A Savage Press Conference

    "If somebody would like to hear the sound of their own voice and BE the news, they’re welcome to it."

    Last night, Arnab Goswami raised quite a few hackles when he accused Shashi Tharoor of being responsible for the death of his wife, Sunanda Pushkar, in 2014.

    Tharoor immediately rubbished the claims on social media (with some unfortunate consequences), even as Goswami continued attacking him on primetime TV.

    Exasperating farrago of distortions, misrepresentations&outright lies being broadcast by an unprincipled showman masquerading as a journalst

    Earlier this morning, in a short press conference, Tharoor further denied the allegations, stating that the police were always aware of the "new evidence" being offered by Goswami.

    Things got a little heated when Tharoor grabbed a Republic reporter who kept interrupting him, and invited him to take over the presscon.

    But once things settled down, Tharoor stated that he had no time to indulge in a battle with Goswami's channel.

    And in a brutal sign-off, he called both Goswami and Republic TV out in the most casually savage way possible.

    So, just to recap the past 24 hours for you:
