Dawn group shenanigans

[Taimoor Khan]

I can see that the above is your opinion, to which you have a right. Unless there is some tangible action by the relevant quarters, it is obvious that many others do not share or care to the same extent about this matter.

To assume "twitter isnt impressed" where clearly there are many twitteris who are supporting PMIK, is a plane yellow journalism at display here.

Maybe Dawn is kind of like South China Morning Post(SCMP) and Apple Daily both controlled by external power from behind the scenes. There are many such a newspapers/media organizations around the world works like that from all over the world.

Dawn administration do not even hide their opposition to Pakistan armed forces and its intelligence agencies. Its a neo liberal gang of coconuts (brown outside, white inside) on a agenda of making Pakistan another western colony in every conceivable way.

It al depends on the number of tweets for and against, I suppose.

Is Dawn running some sort of analytical tool to see as to how many tweets are done by opposite camp!?

Where is the basic principle of journalism of getting narratives and opinions from all sides?

Not just Dawn, but many more companies that sell such information.

They need to mention then if overwhelming majority on twitter is against PMIK and do not agree with his statement. Otherwise its just a rant, and rants do not have any place in journalism, unfortunately.

Stopped reading Dawn a long time ago.

Strangely in the shared piece, there is no mention of the writer. If Dawn is such a liberal newspaper, why it does not share the name of the writer?

Also, the comment section is always filled with comments seemingly posted by Indians with Muslim names. You send a comment, it seldom gets published. To me it seems, the Dawn server is hosted in India. Its always filled with comments that undermine Pakistan and its identity.

I can see what wrong, you can see it, "majority" of Pakistanis can see it, YET the establishment is sleeping over it!

The only thing you can do for what you regard as a rant is to ignore it. Stop reading Dawn, like this:

Problem solved. They will continue to serve their audience according to their editorial policies.

You cant ignore misinformation in society and confront it, until proven otherwise. I am sure you will agree wit that!

And how are you planning on confronting what you regard as misinformation?

I have been thinking about creating a dedicated thread highlighting DAWN newspaper and its owner's clear cut narrative building against Pakistan and its interests. Sometimes they do it right on your face, and sometimes with the choice of words and how they put the highlights about a particular story which give a twist going against national interests and values. And sometimes just putting a very granny and odd pic of people occupying important positions in Pakistan (same thing which BBC is accused of).

Today however, they crossed a red line, when they labelled a sitting elected prime minster of Pakistan as a rape apologist. This is a very serious allegation , nothing short of name calling and it should be punished very severely. Whoever wrote this, authorised this, MUST be dragged into the court and send to jail, at minimum.

Imran Khan — once cricketer, now prime minister, unbudgeable rape apologist?

This vary thread is a starting point. Go through the replies of members here, overwhelmingly against Dawn group current administration and policies. You, yourself suggest use of social media! Short memory?

That is where the audacity of Dawn group comes in where their owner is a gay rapist, yet shedding crocodile tears over PMIK statement, which clearly and deliberately they are refusing to understand, as to what was said.
