| WSJ is running a poll to find out if its readers thought Modi was rude to Zuckerberg (video below) |
Staff correspondent, September 29, 2015, NewsCrunch
A video, which shows PM Modi rudely shoving aside Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, has gone viral.
Most of the comments are critical of the PM and call his action rude.
In the video shot at the Facebook headquarters, Modi is seen with Zuckerberg and Facebook Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg.
Modi, who has his back against the wall, moves Zuckerberg, who is blocking the cameras, aside. Zuckerberg is left looking visibly uncomfortable.
A blog in Wall Street Journal said Zuckerberg “looked a little crestfallen” after getting moved aside. It ran a poll to find out if its readers thought Modi was rude to Zuckerberg. Many apparently think so.
A video of the incident on YouTube, which had been uploaded on Monday received 265 upvotes and 376 downvotes.
