CIA agent GEO TV & Hamid Mir exposed with comprehensiveproofs!
Posted: 25 Jan 2013 02:28 AM PST
Rehman Malik meets Hamid Mir! Who is protecting whom? Who isscratching whose back? Who is loyal and who is not? Over the years, Mr. HamidMir has been associating with various unsavory characters. Mr. Mir has nevercome clean on his own links with David Hasinsky (Principle architect of GEO-TVand VOA, Ex US-Navy “Officer” and AJC member), Casper Weinberger (HonoraryKnight Grand Cross of the Order of the British Empire (‘GBE’) in 198), Al-Qaedaor the ISI or the Army. Geo has strategic links with SkyTV of the UK, CNN,IBN-CNN in India and the Voice of America (VOA). See article on VOA Geoalliance in Pakistan. http://www.usembassy.gov/pakistan/h05111301.html .Its aquarrel among thieves. Former friends have now become enemies! Lets just keepit at that–and lets not blow it out of proportion. Mr. Mir is riding the whitesteed now and is of course playing the game of being more sanctimonious thanthou.
Mr. Rehman Malik is a Zardari loyalist and is responsiblefor him getting into power. Mr. Rehman Malik’s role in the murder of Ms.Benazir Bhutto is yet to be investigated and Geo has done nothing toinvestigate either Shehanshah or Mr. Malik.
Mr. Hamid, despite his recent pretensions was a product ofthe establishment and a product of the ISI and Pakistani Army. As a journalisthe had deep links with the underworld, and was rewarded by allowing him tointerview Osama Bin Laden. In his recent role, he has been very critical of theArmy, the ISI, and the Talibs. At the height of the Bombay crisis, Mr. Mirchallenged the government’s story and tried to show that the Indians were rightand the Pakistanis were wrong. He made a lot of enemies that day.
Why was the notorious David Hazinski (more about thisscoundrel in this article and the one we wrote in 2008) doing at the Geos HQ?At GEO-TV’s main broadcast center in Karachi, Hazinski built a newsroom around24 Mac G4s running Final Cut Pro. News footage is captured with 40 Sony PD150sand 15 PD100s. NewTek Video Toaster 2 systems are used at bureaus in Islamabadand Lahore to switch between the main broadcast center. In addition todesigning a systems approach for GEO-TV, Hazinski helped teach the station’sstaff how to use the equipment and how to produce television news.
Hazinsky is a “US Navy Petty Officer with contacts with theState Department and the American Jewish Committee (AJC).” What are Hazinski’slinks with the VOA? See this
According to (http://www.intelligentmc.com/people.html)“Most recently, he re-designed the central International Broadcast Center forthe Voice of America in Washington and is consulting on new network launchesfor the VOA”. Lets see what else is going on at Geo.
Mr. Mir like the CIA and the US was very pro-Talib, and verypro-Army during the first Afghan Jihad. During the 2nd one, Mr. Mir regularlycriticizes the Pakistan Army and the ISI–similar to the tact taken by the USand the American intelligence agencies. Mir had his reasons for doing that! Mr.Mir challenged the world on exposing him. We just did, and also have writtenextensively on the origins of Geo and the usual suspects were involved in itsbirth, growth, evolution, and monopolization of the Pakistani media. Simplyput, Geo will safeguard its commercial interests and not the interests ofPakistan which it has sworn to uphold. That article was published on this siteseveral years ago when Geo was just starting out–and it wasn’t pretty.

Will Hamid Mir explain his and Geo’s connection of Hazinski?(See details in other article or bottom of this article) WHO IS DAVID DAVIDHAZINSKI? Why did Geo hire a known Neocon for help in content?
Hazinski owns Intelligent Media Consultants, LLC, a companyresponsible for training the staffs and helping to launch eight televisionnetworks around the world, mostly on the sub-continent. These include Aaj Takand CNN-IBN in India and GEO TV in Pakistan. He has also consulted forbroadcasters and publishers such as the Voice of America, Gramedia inIndonesia, and Alsumaria in Beirut and Baghdad. While on the faculty, Hazinskispent two years as writer, co-host and technology advisor of theinternationally syndicated World Business Review with Caspar Weinberger, theSecretary of Defense under Ronald Reagan. Before coming to UGA, Hazinski servedsix years as an international correspondent for NBC News, covering the U.S.,Europe, and Central America — and ten years before that as a TV reporter withstations in Charlotte and Pittsburgh.

Some say that VOA ads on Geo, along with Geo allowing theVoice of America permission to air its program on Geo could have been one ofthe reasons. The Voice of America pays Geo very handsomely for airing its pointof view. With Dollars comes influence. PEMRA explicitly disallows foreign TVchannels to broadcast their networks from Pakistan, unless the foreign channelhas permission from Pemra. Geo regularly broadcasts VOA programming (whichopenly spreads malicious and false propaganda against China), and perpetuatesthe US point of view.
That US point of view is also broadcast on Geo in thePakistani version of the VOA report–the one hosted by Mr.Najam Sethi inPunjabi, Anglosized Punjabi, Pujabish-Urdu with occasional words in Urdu andEnglish. Mr. Sethi’s views (though sugar coated) are sometimes to repugnant tothe Pakistani mindset that Geo places an explicit explanation ahead of hisprogram which says “the views of this author do not represent the views ofGeo”, and that Geo encourages all points of view.
Geo is also beholden to Indian commercial interests. Itstarted the “Aman ke Asha” wave which simply states, that Pakistan shouldforget about boundary disputes and make peace with India. Some link Mr. Mir’sinvestigation into Kassab to his links across the border. The PPP governmentwhile really upset by Hamid Mir, is now going through the motions of trying tocover up the ineptitude of the government, the incompetence of the ISI and theinefficiency of the Army.
After the hanging of Mr. Kassab, Mr. Mir was openlythreatened by various militants who blame him for getting Kassab hanged. Onesuch group actually said that “there will be many more Kassabs.”
Most analysts expected an attack on Mr. Hamid Mir — in lightof the publication of the confession of Ajmal Kassab, in which he accused Mr.Hamid Mir in particular and Geo TV in general. This revelation came out of anarticle published in the Times of India which has access to the interrogationof Kassab. Apparently the Indian interrogator asked him about his opinion inthe aftermath of the report published by Geo, in which Mr. Mir and is fellowjournalists visited the alleged home town of Ajmal Kassab. The Indians thoughtthat Geo had blown the cover of Kassab. Kassab said that Himad Mir and Geo wereagents of the raw.
Mr. Najam Sethi in a recent program alluded this fact thatMr. Mir and Geo sent teams to village which Geo claimed were the ancestralvillages of Mr. Kassab. This has now been widely reported in the world, Indianand Pakistani media–and surely does paint a target of Mr. Mir and Geo TV.
Why did the PPP government not provide additional securityto Mr. Mir? Did Rehman Malik hate Mir so much that he wanted him dead? Malikvisited the residence of Hamid Mir in Islamabad and vowed to provide himeffective and elaborate security. Earlier, explosive material, detonator andbattery packed in a bag and affixed beneath the vehicle of Mir, was foundoutside his house in the federal capital. Is this a joke?
The interior minister said “that security personnel frompolice and FC are being provided to the journalist while a police inspector ofhis own choice will be also deputed for his security.” Malik also announced toconstitute a fact-finding committee, including a magistrate, police officialsand two journalists, which will probe the incident. Lets see if any of this isin the realm of reality.
Appendix A
(Excerpts of an expose on Geo TV) published in 2008.
STRANGE HAPPENINGS AT GEO THAT CANNOT BE EXPLAINED: Here aresome facts about Geo and some example of how Geo demoralizes the population andthe general body of the Pakistani diaspora.
GEO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CRASH OF THE STOCK MARKET: Georepeatedly tele-casted false news about the Pakistani economy, the politicalsituation and hence the stock market crashed in PakistanIn a pre-orchestratedcampaign. Geo focuses on the negative news and instead of focusing on solutionsit shows bodies of dead people in contradiction of PEMRA and all decencyrequirements. Geo focuses on petrol prices but does not inform the viewers thatmost private cars in Pakistan now run on CNG (liqufied petroluem gas) whichcosts $5 for a tank full. Most people driving cars are not affected by the risein petrol (gasoline) prices.
In a planned manner Geo suppresses and ignores good newslike 5.1 billion dollar of oil refinery in Pakistan. Geo usually ignores goodnews like $28 Billion Emar international island development. Geo is averse togood news about Pakistan–there is no discussion of the Bullet Trains inPakistan. Geo does not focus foreign interference in Pakistani affairs. Geo didnot discuss the 89 separatist movements in India in 2007 …from SevenNortheastern sister states, to the Naxalite insurrection, to Bihar to Kashmir,to Assam etc…
Geo Dramas: 50 percent of the dramas are Indian dramas onGeo and 25 percent are with mix cast (Indian and Pakistani) and Indian film.
Geo focuses on showing beheading of people and otherdepressing news. Why did Geo not focus on showing 250 million people sleepingon sidewalks in India? Geo did not cover for 36 hours the killing of 3000Muslims in Gujrat?
Urdu is not used by many hosts. Morning host shows are inEnglish and “Urdlish” ( a horrible combination). The Younger generation isbeing spoiled by using them as instruments of hedonism. Some of the shows areway beyond the pale on being modern. Nudity is not modernity. Science andTechnology is modernity.
Geo plays into the hands of the opposition parties. It doesnot discuss opportunities for development. When Mr. Shaharayar interviewed thePresident of Azad Kashmir he interrupted him and did not allow him to speakabout the problems with the article of accession of Kashmir to India (which isnow lost) if it ever existed. Geo continues to use Indian jargon like“partition”. Partition signifies a temporary dissection of the whole. India wasnever whole. Even during British times there were more than 500 states in theSubcontinent. Some of them banded together to make Pakistan and others banded togetherto make India. Discussion of Kashmir, Manvadar, Junagarh are non-existent onGeo. Most Geo maps show Kashmir as part of Pakistan. Azad Kashmir is nevershown. Some Geo maps sill show the Northern Areas as part of India or part ofKashmir.
Kamran Khan was getting RS 25 lakh per month. Income vs.salary? Dr. Shahid Mahmud used to get Rs 22 laks per month. He was a member ofNSF student Hamid Mir the Editor of “Ausaf” get Rs. 22 Lakh per month. NadiaKhan gets Rs 6 lacs per month. Income vs. salary?When Geo was not able tobroadcast the 8-hour cricket match, Geo said they lost 1 billion Rupees, Afterthe ban Goo kept on broadcasting for 36 hours without any income?Let usinvestigate the players involved with Geo from information that is publicly available.We see these links which will be analyzed.
1) The controversial David Hazinski an ex US Navy PettyOfficer with contacts with the State Department and the American JewishCommittee (AJC)
2) Who is Todd Fratz and why does Geo associate with suchcharacters?
3) Casper Weinberger, Ronald Reagan’s indicted and pardonedSecretary of Defense who predicted the “Next War” with a rogue state like Iran.Why does Geo align itself with known war mongers.
4) Geo has strategic links with SkyTV of the UK, CNN,IBN-CNN in India and the Voice of America (VOA). See article on VOA Geoalliance in Pakistan. http://www.usembassy.gov/pakistan/h05111301.html
ORIGINS OF GEO:
Geo was started with the help of an ex US Naval PettyOfficer by the name of Hazinski who has links with Mr. Casper Weinberger andmany Indian channels.
According to (http://www.intelligentmc.com/people.html)“Most recently, he re-designed the central International Broadcast Center forthe Voice of America in Washington and is consulting on new network launchesfor the VOA”. Mr. Hazinski is the principal of the company called IntelligentMC(http://www.intelligentmc.com/Welcome.html,2870 Peachtree Road #713, Atlanta,GA 30305-2918, USA, email: info@intelligentmc.com, url:http://www.intelligentmc.com).the other principal of Intelligent MC is Mr. ToddFrantz. “Todd comes to IMC from 10 years at CNN in Atlanta”. He has links to“Cox Center for International Mass Communication Training and Research at TheUniversity of Georgia”.
David Hazinski, associate professor at the University ofGeorgia’s Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication, is the principlearchitect of GEO-TV and managed the station’s launch. Hazinski was contacted bythe Jang Group, Pakistan’s largest newspaper publisher and GEO-TV’s owner,after he shepherded the successful launch of a similar station in India inJanuary 2001. Aaj Tak, the first all-news, Hindi-language channel in India, nowhas a 60% share of the news audience in India. As one of the owners ofIntelligent Media Consultants, an Atlanta-based company that helps its clientsdesign efficient and profitable network operations through the creativeapplication of broadcast technology, Hazinski has worked all over the worldlaunching news operations in markets starved for unbiased reporting. “This isreally the cutting edge of technology and journalism,” says Hazinski, a formerNBC news correspondent who says he and his partners have helped launch at leasta dozen news operations in the last 10 years. “These are new markets. Theyhaven’t been exposed to lots of TV.”
Because most of Intelligent Media’s clients are unfamiliarwith broadcast news techniques, Hazinski says he is able to tailor uniqueapproaches that maximize their limited budgets. “These people are willing totry new things because they don’t want to pay the outrageous costs associatedwith news production in the United States,” he says. “Right now, based on whatwe learned in Pakistan, we’re convinced we can launch a network today for halfof what it would have cost three years ago. And no one would see any qualitydifference on the air – even if we aired it in the U.S.”
At GEO-TV’s main broadcast center in Karachi, Hazinski builta newsroom around 24 Mac G4s running Final Cut Pro. News footage is capturedwith 40 Sony PD150s and 15 PD100s. NewTek Video Toaster 2 systems are used atbureaus in Islamabad and Lahore to switch between the main broadcast center. Inaddition to designing a systems approach for GEO-TV, Hazinski helped teach thestation’s staff how to use the equipment and how to produce television news.Greg Pope, a freelance editor and producer formerly with CNN, spent one monthin Karachi this summer training GEO-TV’s news staff, which primarily consistsof newspaper journalists. “We basically had to convert people from printjournalists to TV journalists,” says Pope, adding that he had never taughtproduction techniques in a classroom setting to non-English speaking students.“These print people were basically issued cameras and editing equipment andwithin months were transformed from pen and paper to this new electronic media.Some of them didn’t even know how to use a keyboard when we started.”
Considering the steep learning curve for the Pakistanijournalists, Pope says he was amazed at their perseverance and enthusiasm.“These people are tired of having Western news and government news shoved downtheir throats,” says Pope, who estimates that he taught 100 people to shoot andedit video. “They want their own voice. They want to represent themselves intheir own way.” But there is still a chance that the government will shut downGEO-TV. Pope says that while he was training the news staff, it was widelybelieved that there were spies for PTV within their ranks. However, in recentyears the Jang Group has won many battles for freedom of the press, so there ishope that GEO-TV will succeed. “If they have minimal government interference,[GEO-TV] will change the face of Pakistan,” says Pope.

WHO IS CASPER WEINBERGER? And why did Geo associate with aknown war monger? Caspar Willard “Cap” Weinberger (August 18, 1917 – March 28,2006), was an American politician and Secretary of Defense under PresidentRonald Reagan from January 21, 1981, until November 23, 1987, making him thethird longest-serving defense secretary to date, after Robert McNamara andDonald Rumsfeld. He is also known for his roles in the Strategic DefenseInitiative program and the Iran-Contra Affair.
Following his resignation as Secretary of Defense,Weinberger was placed under indictment by Independent Counsel Lawrence E.Walsh. The formal indictment charged Weinberger withseveral felony counts oflying to the Iran-Contra independent counsel during its investigation. Weinbergerreceived a Presidential pardon from President George H.W. Bush on December 24,1992, after Bush had failed to win a second term. In 1996, Weinbergerco-authored a book entitled The Next War, which raised questions about theadequacy of US military capabilities following the end of the Cold War. Afterhe published his book, his colleagues from the Reagan administration brokecontact and refused to speak with him.
Honorary Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the BritishEmpire (‘GBE’) in 1988, awarded in recognition for an “outstanding andinvaluable” contribution to military cooperation between the UK and the US,particularly during the Falklands War of 1982.
Wikipedia
WEINBERGER DISCUSSES IRAN AND THE NEXT WAR: From PublishersWeekly
Weinberger, secretary of defense for most of the Reaganyears, collaborates with Schweizer, president of the James Madison Institute,to present five possible near-future scenarios in which the U.S. goes to war.Scenario one is based on a North Korean invasion of South Korea that ends instalemate after a limited nuclear exchange. Number two casts Iran as a roguestate using ballistic missiles to alter the Middle East’s balance of power. Thethird scenario postulates a radical Mexican government scapegoating the U.S. asthe source of its country’s woes. A fourth describes the conquest of Europe bya resurgent Russia?again with the aid of nuclear weapons. In scenario five, theU.S. and Japan reignite the Pacific War of 1941-1945, this time using“cyberstrikes” against information systems, chemical warfare and a nuclearexchange.
The authors tell their stories through the eyes of fictionalparticipants. This format, familiar to readers of techno-thrillers, is aneffective framework for dramatizing a set of pessimistic conclusions. Becauseof America’s reduction of its conventional armed forces and its failure tobuild a missile defense system, none of the scenarios have outcomes morepositive than stalemate achieved at high cost.
The authors’ lament for such a missilesystem and for the armed forces of the past won’t convince those who believethat the dominant modes of future conflict will be terrorism and guerrilla war,however. Weinberger and Schweizer nevertheless make a case deserving seriousconsideration by citizens and policy-makers alike. PUblisher’s Weekly posted onAmazon.
DESTABILIZING PAKISTAN: Geo has been blamed forparticipating in and highlighting events per CNN instructions. Why is Geo notreporting Gen. Kayani’s statement that he suspects a foreign hand in theassassination to destabilize and denuclearize Pakistan? The silence isdeafening! Saboteurs trained in Afghanistan have been inserted into Pakistan toaggravate extremist passions here, especially after the Red Mosque operation.
Chinese citizens continue to be targeted by individualspretending to be Islamists, when no known Islamic group has claimedresponsibility. . A succession of “religious rebels” with suspicious foreignlinks have suddenly emerged in Pakistan over the past months claiming to be“Pakistani Taliban”. Some of the names include Abdul Rashid Ghazi, BaitullahMehsud, and now the Maulana of Swat. Some of them have used, and are using,encrypted communication equipment far superior to what the Pakistani militaryowns.
Money and weapons have been fed into the religious movementsand al-Qaeda remnants in the tribal areas.
Exploiting the situation, assets within the Pakistani mediastarted promoting the idea that the Pakistani military was killing its ownpeople. The rest of the unsuspecting media quickly picked up this message. Somebotched US and Pakistani military operations against al-Qaeda that causedcivilian deaths accidentally fed this media campaign.This was the perfecttiming for the launch of Military, Inc: Inside Pakistan’s Military Economy, abook authored by Ayesha Siddiqa Agha, a columnist for a PakistaniEnglish-language paper and a correspondent for “Jane’s Defence Weekly”, aprivate intelligence service founded by experts close to British intelligence.(Ahmed Quraishi is an investigative reporter, currently hosting a weeklypolitical talk show titled Worldview from Islamabad.)

This revelation came out of anarticle published in the Times of India which has access to the interrogationof Kassab. Apparently the Indian interrogator asked him about his opinion inthe aftermath of the report published by Geo, in which Mr. Mir and is fellowjournalists visited the alleged home town of Ajmal Kassab. The Indians thoughtthat Geo had blown the cover of Kassab. Kassab said that Himad Mir and Geo wereagents of the raw.
Mr. Najam Sethi in a recent program alluded this fact thatMr. Mir and Geo sent teams to village which Geo claimed were the ancestralvillages of Mr. Kassab. This has now been widely reported in the world, Indianand Pakistani media–and surely does paint a target of Mr. Mir and Geo TV.
Why did the PPP government not provide additional securityto Mr. Mir? Did Rehman Malik hate Mir so much that he wanted him dead? Malikvisited the residence of Hamid Mir in Islamabad and vowed to provide himeffective and elaborate security. Earlier, explosive material, detonator andbattery packed in a bag and affixed beneath the vehicle of Mir, was foundoutside his house in the federal capital. Is this a joke?
The interior minister said “that security personnel frompolice and FC are being provided to the journalist while a police inspector ofhis own choice will be also deputed for his security.” Malik also announced toconstitute a fact-finding committee, including a magistrate, police officialsand two journalists, which will probe the incident. Lets see if any of this isin the realm of reality.

(Excerpts of an expose on Geo TV) published in 2008.
STRANGE HAPPENINGS AT GEO THAT CANNOT BE EXPLAINED: Here aresome facts about Geo and some example of how Geo demoralizes the population andthe general body of the Pakistani diaspora.
GEO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CRASH OF THE STOCK MARKET: Georepeatedly tele-casted false news about the Pakistani economy, the politicalsituation and hence the stock market crashed in PakistanIn a pre-orchestratedcampaign. Geo focuses on the negative news and instead of focusing on solutionsit shows bodies of dead people in contradiction of PEMRA and all decencyrequirements. Geo focuses on petrol prices but does not inform the viewers thatmost private cars in Pakistan now run on CNG (liqufied petroluem gas) whichcosts $5 for a tank full. Most people driving cars are not affected by the risein petrol (gasoline) prices.
In a planned manner Geo suppresses and ignores good newslike 5.1 billion dollar of oil refinery in Pakistan. Geo usually ignores goodnews like $28 Billion Emar international island development. Geo is averse togood news about Pakistan–there is no discussion of the Bullet Trains inPakistan. Geo does not focus foreign interference in Pakistani affairs. Geo didnot discuss the 89 separatist movements in India in 2007 …from SevenNortheastern sister states, to the Naxalite insurrection, to Bihar to Kashmir,to Assam etc…
Geo Dramas: 50 percent of the dramas are Indian dramas onGeo and 25 percent are with mix cast (Indian and Pakistani) and Indian film.
Geo focuses on showing beheading of people and otherdepressing news. Why did Geo not focus on showing 250 million people sleepingon sidewalks in India? Geo did not cover for 36 hours the killing of 3000Muslims in Gujrat?
Urdu is not used by many hosts. Morning host shows are inEnglish and “Urdlish” ( a horrible combination). The Younger generation isbeing spoiled by using them as instruments of hedonism. Some of the shows areway beyond the pale on being modern. Nudity is not modernity. Science andTechnology is modernity.
Geo plays into the hands of the opposition parties. It doesnot discuss opportunities for development. When Mr. Shaharayar interviewed thePresident of Azad Kashmir he interrupted him and did not allow him to speakabout the problems with the article of accession of Kashmir to India (which isnow lost) if it ever existed. Geo continues to use Indian jargon like“partition”. Partition signifies a temporary dissection of the whole. India wasnever whole. Even during British times there were more than 500 states in theSubcontinent. Some of them banded together to make Pakistan and others banded togetherto make India. Discussion of Kashmir, Manvadar, Junagarh are non-existent onGeo. Most Geo maps show Kashmir as part of Pakistan. Azad Kashmir is nevershown. Some Geo maps sill show the Northern Areas as part of India or part ofKashmir.
Kamran Khan was getting RS 25 lakh per month. Income vs.salary? Dr. Shahid Mahmud used to get Rs 22 laks per month. He was a member ofNSF student Hamid Mir the Editor of “Ausaf” get Rs. 22 Lakh per month. NadiaKhan gets Rs 6 lacs per month. Income vs. salary?When Geo was not able tobroadcast the 8-hour cricket match, Geo said they lost 1 billion Rupees, Afterthe ban Goo kept on broadcasting for 36 hours without any income?Let usinvestigate the players involved with Geo from information that is publicly available.We see these links which will be analyzed.

2) Who is Todd Fratz and why does Geo associate with suchcharacters?
3) Casper Weinberger, Ronald Reagan’s indicted and pardonedSecretary of Defense who predicted the “Next War” with a rogue state like Iran.Why does Geo align itself with known war mongers.
4) Geo has strategic links with SkyTV of the UK, CNN,IBN-CNN in India and the Voice of America (VOA). See article on VOA Geoalliance in Pakistan. http://www.usembassy.gov/pakistan/h05111301.html
ORIGINS OF GEO:
Geo was started with the help of an ex US Naval PettyOfficer by the name of Hazinski who has links with Mr. Casper Weinberger andmany Indian channels.
According to (http://www.intelligentmc.com/people.html)“Most recently, he re-designed the central International Broadcast Center forthe Voice of America in Washington and is consulting on new network launchesfor the VOA”. Mr. Hazinski is the principal of the company called IntelligentMC(http://www.intelligentmc.com/Welcome.html,2870 Peachtree Road #713, Atlanta,GA 30305-2918, USA, email: info@intelligentmc.com, url:http://www.intelligentmc.com).the other principal of Intelligent MC is Mr. ToddFrantz. “Todd comes to IMC from 10 years at CNN in Atlanta”. He has links to“Cox Center for International Mass Communication Training and Research at TheUniversity of Georgia”.
David Hazinski, associate professor at the University ofGeorgia’s Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication, is the principlearchitect of GEO-TV and managed the station’s launch. Hazinski was contacted bythe Jang Group, Pakistan’s largest newspaper publisher and GEO-TV’s owner,after he shepherded the successful launch of a similar station in India inJanuary 2001. Aaj Tak, the first all-news, Hindi-language channel in India, nowhas a 60% share of the news audience in India. As one of the owners ofIntelligent Media Consultants, an Atlanta-based company that helps its clientsdesign efficient and profitable network operations through the creativeapplication of broadcast technology, Hazinski has worked all over the worldlaunching news operations in markets starved for unbiased reporting. “This isreally the cutting edge of technology and journalism,” says Hazinski, a formerNBC news correspondent who says he and his partners have helped launch at leasta dozen news operations in the last 10 years. “These are new markets. Theyhaven’t been exposed to lots of TV.”
Because most of Intelligent Media’s clients are unfamiliarwith broadcast news techniques, Hazinski says he is able to tailor uniqueapproaches that maximize their limited budgets. “These people are willing totry new things because they don’t want to pay the outrageous costs associatedwith news production in the United States,” he says. “Right now, based on whatwe learned in Pakistan, we’re convinced we can launch a network today for halfof what it would have cost three years ago. And no one would see any qualitydifference on the air – even if we aired it in the U.S.”
At GEO-TV’s main broadcast center in Karachi, Hazinski builta newsroom around 24 Mac G4s running Final Cut Pro. News footage is capturedwith 40 Sony PD150s and 15 PD100s. NewTek Video Toaster 2 systems are used atbureaus in Islamabad and Lahore to switch between the main broadcast center. Inaddition to designing a systems approach for GEO-TV, Hazinski helped teach thestation’s staff how to use the equipment and how to produce television news.Greg Pope, a freelance editor and producer formerly with CNN, spent one monthin Karachi this summer training GEO-TV’s news staff, which primarily consistsof newspaper journalists. “We basically had to convert people from printjournalists to TV journalists,” says Pope, adding that he had never taughtproduction techniques in a classroom setting to non-English speaking students.“These print people were basically issued cameras and editing equipment andwithin months were transformed from pen and paper to this new electronic media.Some of them didn’t even know how to use a keyboard when we started.”
Considering the steep learning curve for the Pakistanijournalists, Pope says he was amazed at their perseverance and enthusiasm.“These people are tired of having Western news and government news shoved downtheir throats,” says Pope, who estimates that he taught 100 people to shoot andedit video. “They want their own voice. They want to represent themselves intheir own way.” But there is still a chance that the government will shut downGEO-TV. Pope says that while he was training the news staff, it was widelybelieved that there were spies for PTV within their ranks. However, in recentyears the Jang Group has won many battles for freedom of the press, so there ishope that GEO-TV will succeed. “If they have minimal government interference,[GEO-TV] will change the face of Pakistan,” says Pope.

WHO IS CASPER WEINBERGER? And why did Geo associate with aknown war monger? Caspar Willard “Cap” Weinberger (August 18, 1917 – March 28,2006), was an American politician and Secretary of Defense under PresidentRonald Reagan from January 21, 1981, until November 23, 1987, making him thethird longest-serving defense secretary to date, after Robert McNamara andDonald Rumsfeld. He is also known for his roles in the Strategic DefenseInitiative program and the Iran-Contra Affair.
Following his resignation as Secretary of Defense,Weinberger was placed under indictment by Independent Counsel Lawrence E.Walsh. The formal indictment charged Weinberger withseveral felony counts oflying to the Iran-Contra independent counsel during its investigation. Weinbergerreceived a Presidential pardon from President George H.W. Bush on December 24,1992, after Bush had failed to win a second term. In 1996, Weinbergerco-authored a book entitled The Next War, which raised questions about theadequacy of US military capabilities following the end of the Cold War. Afterhe published his book, his colleagues from the Reagan administration brokecontact and refused to speak with him.
Honorary Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the BritishEmpire (‘GBE’) in 1988, awarded in recognition for an “outstanding andinvaluable” contribution to military cooperation between the UK and the US,particularly during the Falklands War of 1982.
Wikipedia
WEINBERGER DISCUSSES IRAN AND THE NEXT WAR: From PublishersWeekly
Weinberger, secretary of defense for most of the Reaganyears, collaborates with Schweizer, president of the James Madison Institute,to present five possible near-future scenarios in which the U.S. goes to war.Scenario one is based on a North Korean invasion of South Korea that ends instalemate after a limited nuclear exchange. Number two casts Iran as a roguestate using ballistic missiles to alter the Middle East’s balance of power. Thethird scenario postulates a radical Mexican government scapegoating the U.S. asthe source of its country’s woes. A fourth describes the conquest of Europe bya resurgent Russia?again with the aid of nuclear weapons. In scenario five, theU.S. and Japan reignite the Pacific War of 1941-1945, this time using“cyberstrikes” against information systems, chemical warfare and a nuclearexchange.
The authors tell their stories through the eyes of fictionalparticipants. This format, familiar to readers of techno-thrillers, is aneffective framework for dramatizing a set of pessimistic conclusions. Becauseof America’s reduction of its conventional armed forces and its failure tobuild a missile defense system, none of the scenarios have outcomes morepositive than stalemate achieved at high cost.
The authors’ lament for such a missilesystem and for the armed forces of the past won’t convince those who believethat the dominant modes of future conflict will be terrorism and guerrilla war,however. Weinberger and Schweizer nevertheless make a case deserving seriousconsideration by citizens and policy-makers alike. PUblisher’s Weekly posted onAmazon.
DESTABILIZING PAKISTAN: Geo has been blamed forparticipating in and highlighting events per CNN instructions. Why is Geo notreporting Gen. Kayani’s statement that he suspects a foreign hand in theassassination to destabilize and denuclearize Pakistan? The silence isdeafening! Saboteurs trained in Afghanistan have been inserted into Pakistan toaggravate extremist passions here, especially after the Red Mosque operation.
Chinese citizens continue to be targeted by individualspretending to be Islamists, when no known Islamic group has claimedresponsibility. . A succession of “religious rebels” with suspicious foreignlinks have suddenly emerged in Pakistan over the past months claiming to be“Pakistani Taliban”. Some of the names include Abdul Rashid Ghazi, BaitullahMehsud, and now the Maulana of Swat. Some of them have used, and are using,encrypted communication equipment far superior to what the Pakistani militaryowns.
Money and weapons have been fed into the religious movementsand al-Qaeda remnants in the tribal areas.
Exploiting the situation, assets within the Pakistani mediastarted promoting the idea that the Pakistani military was killing its ownpeople. The rest of the unsuspecting media quickly picked up this message. Somebotched US and Pakistani military operations against al-Qaeda that causedcivilian deaths accidentally fed this media campaign.This was the perfecttiming for the launch of Military, Inc: Inside Pakistan’s Military Economy, abook authored by Ayesha Siddiqa Agha, a columnist for a PakistaniEnglish-language paper and a correspondent for “Jane’s Defence Weekly”, aprivate intelligence service founded by experts close to British intelligence.(Ahmed Quraishi is an investigative reporter, currently hosting a weeklypolitical talk show titled Worldview from Islamabad.)

This is not the point being discussed here. The point is being Pakistani channel & showing more affection to India.
Bro loyalists to your country is even asked/expected by America and/or Americans. It's not something strange Pakistanis are expecting from Geo.
