Kaira has a point

When my favorite TV anchor got snubbed by a PPP minister (the party I blame for most of Pakistan’s problems),and I could only agree with the latter.

Media bias remains one of the mainstream issues in political debate worldwide. We have seen Western media for instance promulgate wars for ‘peace’ and decades later we see ourselves grappling with sham ‘evidence’. Similarly,Pakistani media has been criticized for presenting a partial picture;to attract a bigger audience,or propagate the interests of those financing them. Either way,yesterday’s ‘heated debate’ left Kamran Khan speechless for the latter twenty six minutes of the show.  Kaira,good or bad,was able to pin down Khan’s strategy,which is not a new one to political debate.
