It depends on the topics I am interested in. No single source suffices for me, personally.

Dawn, but honestly there is no good source, they are all hacks with agendas.

I watch Nusrat Javed Analysis of political Events.

As a Pakistani I have orphaned all TV /News outlets in Pakistan

• Pakistani TV/Media has 0% presence at my home they are not trust worthy anymore
• Majority of the Newspapers copy paste , pre built templated news for hightest bidder

These channels buy/sell stories for highest bidder and have no Investigative journalistic focus.

• I don't read Urdu Newspapers anymore for past 2 years because these are just "Sponsored" news rather then facts

The Last true investigative reports in Pakistan were , Arshad Sharif (Murdered) and Imran Riaz (who was kidnapped and tortured for his reporting.

The thread is not about what you do not read but rather what you do read.

They are not trust worthy Bycott all Channels who did not report PTI news they won't get any money from my viewership nor my family

Pakistani Channels conjure up fake news all the time

The English newspapers have foreign moles snitches writing up fancy articles for influence.

Pakistani Community already know which political party owns certain channels such channels publish fake news on all platforms

LOL. There’s other newsworthy topics too. And PTI is covered by other news sources. Which do you prefer?

 

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

No even on Youtube , when I read the post is from Pakistani News TV or Newspaper it is automatically considered "FAKE" and fabricated lie

I don't even click it

Pakistani channels are just there for spreading fake stories and selling commercials or Spreading lies internally in Pakistan

Attaining your news from Pakistani News Source is same level as reading some article written on a publish bathroom door

Pakistani News Sources are untrustable

The best reporting on Pakistan over the last year has been done by The Intercept and Ahmed Noorani.

In any other country, Bajwa and his whole family would be in jail given what Noorani has exposed of his corruption.

 

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

Investigative Reporting does not exist in Pakistani tv, it is all ebay News

• Arshad Sharif did great work very detail reports on Nawaz Sharif corruption
• Imran Riaz , briliant man

However most other are just lifafa Journalist

You give a LIfafa (envelope) with money or payment overseas the TV channel will write a certain story

Political Talk Show are specifically banned which house Chandu Khana politicians from PML and PPP the TV is Shut down if accidently anyone has any such channel open

Pakistani Political shows are a FishMarket quarrel.

Most of these Lifafa TV channel 's youtube version of news are also not clicked upon

Their reporting as same level of credibility as a guy on Gali Ka Nukar, sitting on a chair and conjuring up fake news

There is this one Lifafa Queen , Farooqi Gharida , absolute garbage lady banned her on social media as well , so I don't see her ugly mug

 

[spammmmer]

Indian media because i live in india.

 

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

The best source is now the Pakistani People themselves who have become more savvy

• No longer Journalist or TV or newspaper required

Pakistani People are fully awake now from a observation perspective
