ISLAMABAD: Top media channels including ARY News, Express News and Geo
News have admitted that they are using all type of commercial tools to attract
public attention.
In an interview with Arnab Goswami - the yellow kid, Express
News president Aamir Liaquat said that they lie to the public all the time.
The Express News president said, ‘See, I need to earn at
least one crore on a daily basis. If I don’t my wife would kill me’. He gave
that as a reason to lie to the public.
On the other hand, Mubashir Luqman from ARY said that his
channel always airs what the public wants to hear. He gave the example of
ShakesPear who wrote what people liked.
The anchorperson said that if we don’t tell the public what
they want to hear what fun would that be? He looked towards Mir Shakil ur
Rehman and said, ‘Q baba ji’?
Geo News founder Mir Shakil ur Rehman covered his face and
laughed in a hysterical manner at the comments of Mubashir Luqman. He started
shouting Pakistan Zinda bad and told Aamir Liaquat that he would give him 1.5
crore if he leaves his old job and comes back to Geo.
He refrained from commenting whether Geo tells lies or the
truth. But he did say our programs are for the elite if public doesn’t want to
watch them, than they should not.
He reminded Arnab that Nawaz Sharif the current prime
minister of Pakistan also said something about Geo two weeks back that he doesn’t
remember because he was running for his life at that time. He said, ‘that
settles it, If Prime minister watches Geo than geo must be telling the truth’.
