Media outlets in India have been accused of stoking up feelings against Pakistan, because they have to fill more and more time with 'news' and therefore invent and exaggerate stories. This is exactly what happens in the UK, although we don't have a Pakistan to worry about. We tend to exaggerate anything to do with a celebrity especially if it's relating to a TV program such as X Factor, Bake Off, etc. etc. Chris Evans is 'Under fire'; Gary Lineker was 'Slated for...' and so we go on filling as much space as possible with meaningless dross. Luckily war is not imminent with either Chris Evans or Gary Lineker.
