Media at this time is considered as one of the most important pillar of the State and this remains an unquestionable fact as it continues to conduct its work on the directions and commandments of the State authorities.
This fact of slavery to the government became more evident when it joined hands with the government to malign the peaceful anti-America protests ignited across the country against the blasphemous movie. The government conferred an important task to media to defame the protests and label them as emotional, angry and violent mobs.
Media with the aid of government initiated negative propaganda against the peaceful protesters and shaped the nonviolent protests as inhuman demonstrations all of a sudden.
What it did was giving maximum time and exclusive reporting to angry protests led by government thugs and not giving sufficient covereage to hundreds of other peaceful protests staged across the country including the most peaceful protest by University Students on Thursday and the one of Numaish Chowrangi on Friday.
The giddiness of our media diverted the whole momentum and discussion against the blasphemy to the discussion that the followers of Islam are extremists and they could not even record their protests peacefully.
Through your resource, I must suggest our media to show some maturity now and behave responsibility by giving equal time to both sides of the picture.
