ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Saturday urged the nation to boycott Geo group for airing a controversial and offensive show in its morning program.
Addressing a press conference here on Saturday, Khan accused the Geo group of receiving foreign funding to set agendas in Pakistan.
“Mir Shakeel ur Rehman is a blackmailer. I demand that there should be an independent audit of assets of Jang/Geo group.”

Central Information Secretary PTI, Shireen Mazari, today condemned in the strongest words the Geo morning show which sought to ridicule Islam and the Prophet(PBUH)'s family. This is absolutely unacceptable Mazari stated. It is also unconstitutional since our Constitution does not permit anything against Islam. **
Mazari said this clearly shows yet again the Geo/Jang group’s agenda is dictated by foreign funding and anti-Islam and anti-Pakistan. It is time the government put a stop to this abuse of Islam and the Prophet (PBUH)'s family and hold the guilty accountable instead of simply sheltering behind PEMRA and the so-called Complaints body. Freedom of the press does not imply freedom to abuse Islam and the sentiments of Muslims not only in Pakistan but across the world.****Shireen M Mazari

Question, did Shireen Mazari issued a similar circular for ARY,Samaa as well? Wait, those were not against Army, right?
Whereas somewhere the only wise person in PTI was saying,
Javed Hashmi against Geo News ban

Listen!
Make your mind up, either quit superficially professing about democracy and freedom of speech or stop criminalising Imran’s political stance. Your attitude shows you yourself have very little respect and understanding for the terms you’d love to throw around.
Imran was fully entitled to his policy of boycott (he never advocated a ban), but no way it gives PAMERA the right to close down a channel without any legal proceeding!
Get it?
