Re: "A letter from Pakistan"
Mushy has allowed far more freedom in Media then has happened in Pakistan at any point since 1958. That is to his credit..in fact Indian journalists have often commented how anti government the Pak Media were..and have said that they found the Pak Media far more critical of the government. That is probably accurate ..because of the lack of effective political opposition in Pakistan the press tends to be far more critical..
Although I should add people I know in the Media biz are increasingly self censoring..criticism of the Army is frequently from ex Army officers who are less worried of the response, also with the return to power of the Lota League democrats ..journalists in print media in particular ..who criticise are now worried about the midnight knock again..
