Reports in Indian mass media are no more accurate than ones in American mass media. The problem with MOM is compounded by the fact that it's been ISRO's modus operandi to release information only to the media rather than do press releases on their own website. They've changed that somewhat recently, but there's still a lot of information that comes out about MOM that is filtered through the media first, often with a loss of signal. So yeah, that's wrong. Further discussion of how it's wrong belongs in the Inaccuracy in Reporting thread.
