Arnab Goswami, born on October 9, 1973, in Guwahati, Assam, is an Indian television news anchor, journalist, and the Editor-in-Chief of Republic TV, a prominent English and Hindi news network in India. Known for his aggressive and confrontational style of journalism, Goswami gained recognition as the host of The Newshour on Times Now before launching Republic TV in 2017. His shows, such as The Debate with Arnab Goswami, focus on national issues, often characterized by high-energy debates on topics like nationalism, corruption, and security.
Goswami has been a polarizing figure in Indian media, attracting both a significant following and criticism for his reporting style, which is often labeled as sensationalist and biased. His career has been marked by coverage of major events such as the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, political scandals, and high-profile criminal cases. Despite controversies, he remains a key figure in shaping the discourse of Indian television news.
In September 2017, BOOM fact-checked a viral claim about Goswami’s account of the 2002 Gujarat Riots. In an old video, Goswami claimed to have been attacked during his coverage of the riots. However, former colleagues disputed this account, labeling it as false.
BOOM found out that the claims of Goswami being attacked during the riot coverage were inaccurate, with inconsistencies in his recounting of the events.
