What's new

Nawaz Sharif govt forces Express News to take journalists Moeed Pirzada & Fawad Hussain off air!

1. Geo criticized Musharraf very heavily, in fact took a lead during 2006-7. It was put off air for many months. I know the criticism leveled at Geo, but much of it is done without due consideration.

2. Whether or not one acknowledges it, there is a behind-the-scenes tension between Civilian government and Army-backed Establishment. Geo's editorial policy is squarely anti-Establishment. That is why Hamid Mir was hit via contractors, that is why Geo/Jang group has been targeted for the last many months, despite civilian government support being extended to it. Most people miss that and simply think that Geo is pro-government. Its not quite like that. However, I am not going to defend overt bias being displayed by Geo. By the same logic, ARY, Express, and Dunya ought to be questioned for their bias as well.

So, yeah Geo is biased - but then are the others I listed above unbiased? I have read somebody's comment above in that Geo should be blamed for not showing IK and TuQ speeches. Why? What is new about those speeches? Anything else to watch on TV is a welcome relief from the boring and tiring and sometimes shameful stuff from Islamabad.

How many of you enjoyed Pakistan-Sri Lanka match? I did, and it was a relief from dharna drama.
Great defence of GEO tv , by a MOD of PDF!

There is zero proof of Army involvement in the matters mentioned above. You are moderator, yes you have your opinion, but unlike members like me, you bear extra responsibility when making a statement. If you have any proof of Army involvement, present it, otherwise don't furnish allegations such as these.

Mubarak ho, mubarak ho, mubarak ho

I was checking geo stream on dm. just there, 13k people watching drama unfolding.

Express isn't bias. They've written against pti and for it as well. I don't watch their tv channel, but online website

Where's the evidence of Nawaz and shahbaz telling police to kill pat workers?

Army DOES hate hamid mir. I don't know if they tried to kill him, but they do hate him. one reason is because he seeks justice for baloch, who are being killed and kidnapped.

What a stupid Logic.....IK, PTI & PDF Administrators can target, malign State of Pakistan, Govt of Pakistan But
a PDF Mod couldn't do the same one of the institution under them:hitwall:
I think it's only one administrator who is very vocal for pti army and against other parties

He's not anti state.

geo is ptv 2 they just take one quote and then beat it in our head through their extreme biased journalism..
geo and govt both have problem with army and thats why supporting each other..
other channel supporting dharna against govt because they think govt is wrongly supporting geo and they are tit for tat with govt..

I am just following IK aka retard khan.
Boycott Geo and then PTI supporters attacked their reporters.
You forget what he said about IG Islamabad?
For the potians...

Imran can incite violence, that's ok. but other parties can.t
Imran can negotiate with taliban, but not gov't

he is full of hypocricy, like the supporters

Hamid Mir was not targeted by mobile snatchers, nor was he targeted by any political party militant wing. None could know before-hand his travel plans, since he took care to keep that information to himself. Who was he targeted by? He was threatened by certain people in the months leading up to the assassination attempt. He broke stories and espoused certain causes that embarrassed certain people.

One hint, start looking for Shafiq Mengal. You may understand who targeted HM and who might the 'contractors' be. I have *some* information of my own. I am free to form my opinions.

I expressed these opinions of mine before I was made a moderator. I feel no need to conform my views to yours just because I am a moderator.

@Chak Bamu is a candle light in a dark room of PDF:coffee:

Please do not make me something that I am not.

Those whom you cant buy are taken off, this is Jumhooriat ko bachana..you know.. :D

After all we need to give time to this system before it delivers. I wonder why didn't we give time to the restoration of judiciary rather than carrying out a long march. IK is doing a great favour to democracy by shaking the govt for her indifference towards accountability.
