Mindless media-ocrity (II)

ISLAMABAD: Mahreen Aziz Khan’s article “Mindless media-ocrity” (July 9), is probably the first time a media insider has given an opinion that reflects on the feelings of Pakistan’s middle class. Most people affiliated with the media, especially with Pakistan’s largest media group, represent the view of the extreme right, and unabashedly air views supporting the clergy, big businesses, and the armed forces. By demonising elected representatives and canonising the judiciary, army, and legal fraternity they are laying the ground for the next round of military-bureaucratic rule.
