For your kind information, Abbas Athar is Pro-PPPP from** 1967** when PPP was made by ZAB in Lahore at Dr. Mubashir Hassan home. Zia-ul-Haq kept him in jail for 3 years i think , when released , he went to New York and came after Zia plane crashed.
I respect him as he is one of the most senior journalist today in Pakistan,nominee of 2009 Pride of Performance and very brave man but its not necessary we always believe what he says as 100% right.
In Column Kaar program on Express Tv Channel , he appears with Mujeeb ur Rehman Shami ( owner of Daily Pakistan and Qaumi Digest) , a strong critic of ZAB and ZAB threw him and Altaf Hassan Qureshi(owner of Urdu Digest) behind the bars as they were Anti-PPP while Abbas Athar always remained as Pro-PPPP
As you say Abbas is pro ppp & mujeeb is anti pro .. is that a good thing or bad thing? having balance in a tv programs which most of don't have.
