Re: Media curbs relaxed - some Private TV channels back on air

The outright lies that they told about soldiers taking over the Supreme Court were refuted by their own journalists and even lawyers on the ground. But those were not the only lies told by Geo. They were the first to break the story “BREAKING NEWS: MUSHARRAF PUT UNDER HOUSE ARREST BY HIS OWN SOLDIERS”. They quickly removed that ticker when it was told to them that Musharraf was actually in a meeting with 80 foreign diplomats, and then they tried to blame obscure and unnamed Arab sources.

Also, remember when “Dr” (or rather weatherman) Shahid Masood said the storm warnings over Karachi were just govt scaremongering. The following morning the storms lashed Karachi, and many, many people died. Shameful reporting for which this clown should have been sacked!

Yes. Remember it well.
