A tale of two interviews separated by an hour: Zakir Naik and Times Now

By TCN News

Islamic preacher Zakir Naik has been hitting headlines for all the wrong reasons in connection with the terror attacks in Bangladesh. This has also resulted in media channels making a beeline for his interview, and Times Now is no exception. Megha Prasad, a journalist from Times Now interviewed Zakir Naik and asked a number of questions, all of which were answered by Dr Naik and were deemed satisfactory by the reporter.

However, an hour later, Prasad called up Dr Naik again and said she would have to redo the interview citing ‘major technical fault’ with the previous recording. The approach to the second interview could not have been more different from the first one; this time, Prasad chose to attack, condemn and malign Naik.

The first interview ends at around 15:00.
