IMHO we're confusing "journalist" with "news anchor" and "talking head."
It seems that the news anchors and talking heads have issues with IK, and that's not surprising.
These folks aren't generally educated in economics, politics, public policy, etc, so you can't expect them to offer strong, evidence-backed perspectives on these issues as journalists should.
If you take me as the bare minimum of what a journalist could be in Pakistan, then you're probably talking about -- at best -- 10-12 influential individuals. Most of them are neutral about IK because they understand how bad AZ and NS actually are, but there are a couple (e.g., Ayesha Siddiqa) who have an axe to grind with the armed forces leadership. However, a journalist who is worth their salt isn't going to waste time on politics, they understand the bigger issues (e.g., structural corruption, generally bad policymaking across institutions, etc) at play, and know full well that PML and PPP are part of the problem.
Now if we're talking about talking heads and tabloid-level press opinions, then those guys are generally uninformed and biased everywhere you go. Unfortunately in Pakistan, we give these people more credence than they deserve.
