I recently watched TOLO TV channel of Afghanistan and I was amazed how good it was. It was actually a real news program with good camera quality and clear bulletins easy to understand. I was surprised how good Afghan news media is compared to Pakistan.

Geo, Dunya, and Samaa are absolute trash compared to Afghan news outlets. Pakistani media dramatizes headlines, uses terrible graphics, and has the worst camera quality I have ever seen. How does Afghanistan have clear HD cameras for their news but Pakistan has 480p resolution? Afghan reporters are better too, they stick to the facts while half the time Pakistani reporters are just making up new headlines for more clickbait.

I wish Pakistan had a real TV channel as good as TOLO. Instead all of Pakistan's media is rubbish like India.

Look at the difference in reporting

Tolo Is a state TV. Everything is censored and everyone behaves accordingly. But the Pakistani one which you shared the clip of is a private local channel. Better compare it with ptv. Rest I agree the local media outlets must introspect and cut on that idiotically annoying animations and flashers. Can't watch a breaking news without hurting my eye sight.

This is why i don't take my information nor watch Pakistani news channels on TV. They need a major revamp on their way of conduct and professionalism IMO

The Afghan TV channel you've listed is doing good so far, hopefully they're able to improve in other sectors as well ^^ well wishes :tup:

You seriously recommending someone to watch PTV .ptv is even more neutered as a state tv than TOLO ,rather than PTV I would recommend Indus News but they dont have an Urdu channel yet

If you go back a decade, it was sultan lakhaani media group which initiated this mockery of news. Others just followed in his foot steps
I just Googled him. Wow til, he is founder of Express News. o_O

Geo news network is great. Quality of content is superb. I often disagee with what they say but its a great asset for the country.

Indus focus on international news.

Indus looks pretty good actually. Never heard of them but I just looked it up and I like it. They should focus more on domestic news as well and it will be perfect. Urdu instead of English would be better but Indus is still better than rest of Pakistani media. I was searching for a professional Pakistani news channel exactly like this.

Wake me up when tolo news telecasts the media grilling of their president live and in the open at the hands of the raging bulls of journos.

Watch Hum news headlines. they are not as loud i guess.

I would but then there media managers have this obsession with the rainbows
