I am fully convinced that GEO is anti Pakistan and all pro-pakistan people should jump from the sinking ship.
I suppose Bol also belongs to geo group
@MK: Kamran Khan couldn't face the moral dilemma of current salary at geo and offered salary at BOL. All other moral dilemmas are irrelevant for Pakistani journalists.
Geo is indeed a sinking ship now. Since they have compromised on the basic principles of fair journalism, a sensible person like Kamran Khan, has made the right decision to leave them.
@bell: Bol is a News Network whose motive is to be launched as Number 1 news channel of Pakistan. You can search 'Bol network' on google for more details..
Who Cares ??? Yawwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnn!
Kamran Khan was risking his credibility with controversial GEO - good decision by him
Kamran is great journalist of Geo News. Today few minutes ago he resigns from Geo news. God Bless you
I thought he didnt work for MSR and MKR.... that it was a well run organisation and the owners were not involved and blah blah blah....
Looks like he deserted the sinking ship that is Geo.
BTW what is BOL?
Expect more people to jump ship. GEO is a sinking ship. After what they have done in the past with irresponsible, tabloid journalism, anti-Pak agenda, accepting funding from foreign countries and not paying any taxes; it serves them right.
It's take of rivalry between money hungry media houses.Its not for any principle matter-who cares irresponsible journalism here or there.
