The quality of reporting of Tribune is going down very very fast.
What did Bilore say? and on which channel?

I dont know why Pakistani reporters do such a poor job in reporting. They never give the main background information; in this case Bilour’s statement. They assume that the reader has nothing else to do but to keep up with every piece of information on an ongoing basis. Very frustrating.

HAHA…MQM and ANP are partners in the the govt. Plz stop fooling the people with this topi drama.

The Sort of Babarian attitude ANP has just shown reveals that ANP is frustrated because ANP knows that the upcoming Election will wipe out ANP from the National Scene, and it is believed that ANP would not be able to win even 10% of seats earlier captured by ANP in Election 2008.
Can anybody name any balanced minded politician in ANP.
SC has to take strong action on the saying of Mr. Ilyas Bilor, it should ot be taken as only slip of tongue.
