Media coverage of the COVID-19 wave in India featured sensationalist imagery of burning pyres in New Delhi. A reporter claimed that the dead had to "join a queue" to be processed, which the hosts mock as an absurd way to describe the backlog at crematoriums. The segment criticizes the media's insistence that death tolls "must be much higher" than reported.

Western media outlets like CNN have focused heavily on visual reports from mass crematoriums in New Delhi, depicting long queues for funeral rites. While the Biden administration has banned travel from India citing variant concerns, some observers argue the reporting lacks proportion relative to India's massive population. The use of PCR tests to define "cases" rather than clinical infections remains a point of contention among critics of the official narrative.
