The list of shareholders of lootis out today by the order of the Supreme Court.

Some super angels are: Jasmeen Manzoor, Arif Nizami, Saleh Zafar, Munizhe Jehangir, Rameeza Nizami, Dr Hasan Askari Rizvi, Asma Chaudhry, Sherbano Taseer, Raza Rumi, Amir Mir, Sohail Warraich, Nazir Naji and Baqir Sajjad Syed feature on the list, among others.
"Another list of 155 journalists who took gifts and payments from the information ministry will also be made public later."

Just as politicians keep their personal differences aside and make coalitions in the “larger national interest”, our most pious and thoroughly professional journalists who question political moral and financial integrity of politicians day in and day out, have also taken favours from the government — in cash or kind — in the larger national interest.

The full list is available in PDF format.

One thing is not clear. When government spent/bribe so much in media, why it was always on receiving end? I have never seen a single news item which had praised the government unnecessarily. The most abused and insulted person even in this forum and in media was/is Zardari and other PPP leaders. This media down played some real good work done by the past government. On the other hand PML(N) was the most beneficiary in this media corruption.

CJ has not yet decided his son getting millions in bribe from Malik Riaz.
