A headline of an article on Pahalgam killings in New York Times said: 'At Least 24 Tourists Gunned Down by Militants in Kashmir'. Quoting the screenshot of the same, the America's Foreign Affairs Committee said, "Hey, @nytimes we fixed it for you. This was a TERRORIST ATTACK plain and simple. Whether it’s India or Israel, when it comes to TERRORISM the NYT is removed from reality."
