Now coming to the mess in account of Stock Exchange crashing to the bottom and then rise of Dollar against Rupee. Even though, it is a subject of economy that I am not good at calculations as such but still, how the so-called investigative journalists and dedicated teams concealed the root cause of such down-slide; is notable.
A commoner even understands that Stock Exchange cannot crash in a manner as such at overnight and value of money results based upon the economic figures in past. As usual, media teams played their best into the hands of masters and totally ignored the fact as how this could happen. As per my understanding for which, I can be wrong too, as soon as Government Institutes started accountability process, started to track Tax Evaders, started to investigate wealth beyond means or resources & started to apprehend economic hitmen at any level then suddenly Stock Exchange mafia pulled out. Dollar vanished from market which resulted in less value of Rupee. As stated above, the goal is not to discuss economic reforms or counters but here we can see that how specific mafia works in coordination with different arms of propaganda on behest of hostile.
In broader prospect, there are teams that works in close coordination like from media to economic players, then from political thugs to low level manipulators living among public, then from propagandist which fuels different kind of divides to the people that sparks feud & anger among people to target State in the end. The State, yes this is the only target to hit. Whether ruling party is PTI or not; I must repeat, the state remains the main target whereby hostile elements will shoot over the shoulder of politics.
Just a day ago, Government decided to investigate mismanagement at Ministry of Information whereby ex-Minister namely Maryam Aurangzeb allegedly spent millions to empower PMLN political social media team over the expense of exchequer money. Now, see all the drama, sabotage & propaganda through media in previous years especially targeting State Institutes that too upon the expense of Public Money. As said before, Media is the tool to further any agenda in a manner as desired and this is the same tool which works as a loud speaker.
So, most of media houses especially Journalists did not even consider a moment to investigate about real problem of unfortunate inflation nor did anyone reveals as why are we facing current situation. These highly paid manipulators keep concealing or deliberately avoids to share details as such which will help populace to know the real culprits behind all the misery because; most of them journalists are meant to earn and keep pleasing certain employers. How media tycoons been threatening Institutes in different wording and styles; is all on record.
This is all the part of hybrid warfare waged upon state to demean & demoralize any progress which will benefit the nation at large. These media houses will call it a news till any leak helps to harm National Security and will believe in Journalism as such but on other hand, whenever called upon to differentiate between Journalism & espionage then will start to cry high and play victim card. The same media houses will play with the help of corrupt elements within the Government ranks and as currently Institutes are gearing up to deal the cancer as such; same media houses are trying to demean any effort as such to minimize the possibility of justice being served to the culprits. If anyone having a thought that why would Media will support corrupt elements then must remember that corrupt elements cannot live without propaganda or influential media houses and vice versa. Both elements works closely to pursue specific agenda as & when required.
Few among the journalists will support ethnic groups and project them as a sort of mere political party but these elements will be eyeing a later damage when it extends it roots among public. For example, the Achakzai treason & PTM's hateful business. Most of journalist's interests lies abroad and their love of luxuries is not hidden so they deliberately play deaf & dumb contrary to the facts & truth to be told. The hybrid warfare manipulation works in a manner by creating a deceptive cover of highly harmful matters through manners such as political differences or social reforms. Such kind of covers are utilized initially so public without much information in this regard start to believe whatever being propagated through different means of communications and as the hostile agenda gains momentum, they starts to launch next level of anti State activities with aggressive approach & hateful campaigns.
Media & Journalists are part of the same hybrid warfare that works along different groups including corrupt officials, political thugs, ethnic groups, extremists including either religious or liberals, NGOs & other elements. These pawns are utilized through different sources in different times but above all, coverage is being provided by Media mediums to corrupt society at first.
Pakistan is in dire need of a mechanism to keep check & balance as well as a close watch over activities of people attached to the media at large. As the game is designed on complex web but it is not hard to track down connected infections running malicious campaigns against State. Political differences aside; State will have to act to get rid of hostile elements. Currently, most of opposition political elements have opted a way appearing to be political but deep down it is highest threat to the state which is designed to sabotage society, create unrest & uncertainty and make people believe of less progress. Most of the fake news are shared and these media houses walks freely in the name of Personal Opinion.
We have recent example of Cyril of Dawn whose article totally misrepresented the facts and was an attempt to malign State Institutes with the help of Nawaz Sharif and Company. Similar sabotage was done in past by Hussain Haqqani being supported by Asif Zardari against State. Then-after, despite having thousands of pro-claimed investigative journalists & champions of journalism, none date to tell the truth as what really happened down there. In fact, truth will help state at large but here, personal gains & cheques were more important over National Interests. Therefore, one should not expect much of truth or beneficial report or investigative journalism from current lot of Journos nor to help them spread their designed propaganda.
