Two explosions heard in Anarkali, Lahore
LAHORE: Two explosions were heard in the Anarkali area of Lahore on Friday.
Police sources said the explosions could have been the result of small Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) planted in the market, but there was no immediate confirmation of the cause.
The area has been cordoned off and an investigation is underway.
Earlier late Thursday night, a gas explosion at a hotel in Islamabad had injured six people. The explosion damaged four rooms in the hotel.

Irresponsible media.

It aired these blasts as 'breaking news'....

Media should be free, but there must be check and balance, they are just in race 'who aired first'.

Breaking news bar is a joke on all Pakistani channels. A minister sneezes it is breaking news, a VIP goes to toilet in a hurry it is a breaking news, a parked cycle is hit by a car it is breaking news, a lady slaps a man on the street it is a breaking news. What non-professionalism.

Even foreign international news channels do not show this number of breaking news in this way. Are Pakistani channels covering more news than channels like BBC, CNN, Al Arbaiya and Al Jazeerah.

They cannot match any of these channels for many years to come in terms of coverage and broadcasting.

Can you imagine that GEO news, the largest news channel in Pak, shows that a Mexican model in some unknown city slipped on the ramp because of her faulty heel and a cat scaring here, that too on the 9 o clock news!

Really unprofessional attitude.

Yesterday, news channels were giving breaking news blast in Isl, sound heard for miles, windows broken. Rehman Malik at the scene. WTF was Rehman Malik there if it was a gas cylinder blast?

Stupid media.

Exactly, they are going out of control and cause of fear in people. There should be some action from information ministry over this nonsense.
