Re: Fate of Free Press
No one can really deny how much the media has exploded in the past 5 years at least.
Just the coverage over the Lal-Masjid problems and the criticism levelled against the government after it shows how the government really isn't controlling the media all that much. These sorts of things NEVER were seen on television on PTV and NTM in the old days of television.
The Anwar Maqsood shows were an excellent example. Moin Akhtar recalls in almost every interview he gives of what censorship he and Anwar Maqsood were under when doing their shows in the PTV days.
