Female Sells…

Gone are the days when Touseeq Haider and Mustansar Hussain Tarar were used to do morning transmission on PTV. According to some that golden era of PTV is long gone for never to return.

Today there are dozen channels doing morning transmissions and utilizing females as their prime source of selling. There is so much roar of Pakistan being a male dominated society and our media giants have used it well to sell their content.

It just needs a girl loaded with make up who can mimic and gossip on camera and can follow latest Indian fashion and it’s all enough to sell. Even your pronunciation and diction doesn’t matter. What you speak doesn’t counts as long as you speak fluently.

Local culture of dopatta and showing respect to elders is replaced by Indian copied dresses and dialogues. Speaking loud and yelling to make your point clear has become a norm.

Media students learn that media is actually portraying the culture of a society ,one wonders on watching Pakistani media where on the streets you find women  with uncovered heads and wearing Holly wood dress. Is media presenting our culture or transforming our culture on the name of commercial interests.

Why media don’t want to give a sense of seriousness and what the point of utilizing females other than selling? News media all over the world work as a pressure group on government while here it only work as a commercial entity making more and more money to open more channels.

Our media is never going to transform itself without a strong pressure from the public unless public don’t makes its mind change is never going to come.

Hussain Haqqani : A Crook damaging Pakistan Interests Abroad

Pakistan ambassador to United States Hussain Haqqani is again in the headlines and for same notorious reasons.

This time Hussain Haqqani has sent a letter to various Pakistan ministries and Foreign office as well protesting Pakistan decision to not give visas to some U.S journalists.

If we didn't allow visas to some foreign personnel,its our right but how can you say it has hurted Pakistan's interests in U.S ,why not he talks of damaging Pakistan's interests when people like Qazi Hussain ahmed were denied to visit U.S only on visit visa.

What you stand for Mr Haqqani, are you a Pakistani or an American government official? What you stands for?

Haqqani is famous for damaging Pakistan and criticizing its own people and serving American interests ,may be he is eying first Asian Secretary of State in Next tenure of Obama?

Express news columnist Tanveer Qaisar Shahid has lambasted Mr Haqqani showing him true face of reality.

Javed Ch fired Najam Sethi

Some days ago renowned columnist and anchor person of Express news TV Javed Ch wrote a column in which he highlighted the character of Najam sethi,editor of 'Daily Times' and Governor Punjab Salman Taseer. This has evolved a controversy.

Javed Ch writes" In 1997 Najam sethi visited India and there ridicule the Pakistan ideology and the principles of Islam . Moreover , Najam sethi is running a NGO in Lahore which is sponsored by India and America because of its Anti Pakistan ideology. Najam sethi blatantly criticizes the fundamentals of Islam and is very fond of dogs".

Javed Ch writes further" Musharraf has told me in his meeting that Najam sethi compelled me to carry out Lal masjid operation and after the operation these people ran away".

Javed ch is cautious of the fact that new government is also acting in the hands of people like Najam sethi because these people are no good for any government nor for people of this country .

Moreover, Javed Ch has also wrote on Salman taseer saying he has millions of tax to pay and he has married a sikh women in India and he has a son from her too but why he has kept all this secret and recently he has been found to transfer his money abroad. Javed Ch requests President Zardari to order a investigation against Governor Salman taseer as well.

Although the apology of group editor Abbas Ather has published the next day but we have to admit that this is the first column of such nature by Javed Ch and we dont know what was his inspiration.
