Shahid had come under fire for a few of his shows especially one where he had invited Barrister Saif and Talal Bugti as guests via a phone in. The Barrister, who had been considered a right hand man of former dictator General Pervez Musharraf, went on an abusive tirade against the disgruntled Baloch leader, even threatening him with physical harm live on television with Kamran Shahid watching as a spectator.
Shahid had not been hosting his regular 8pm show for the past two weeks with a temporary host filling in.
Journalism Pakistan, in a second story, said that senior journalist and anchor Syed Talat Hussain has also made the move to Express from DawnNews, probably ushering in a prime time revamp.

Tallat Hussain is talented & brillant anchor he may survive every where but its bad luck not for DAWN News.
The link mentioned in this story should be journalismpakistan.com and not journalismpakistan.com.pk.
its funny ET is quoting a "different source" related purely to its home base news. Despite spreading rumours ET come in with truth behind the story once in for all. :P Do not speculate atleast about your own organizations' news.
They are no different than our politicians. All hail to Lotaism
Why did Express News take so long to take action against him???? Did they actually take action or they just bringing now that he is going?
The moment that show happened , he should have been fired there and then . I feel sorry for the Pakistani public that had to watch that show .
Talat is capble anchor but hypernationalist and is not good for express.
Dunya news is losing its credibility.. The campaign to expel Kamran Shahid was going on for a longer time. He is rightfully expelled. That episode was horrendous. See and Look at conclude yourself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GobLJcb3Jgk&feature=plcp
"Entree" Talat Hussain? Seriously ET!!!!
No difference between media and Lucky Irani Circus. Everyone is after money, no ethics.
All faces are similar. They are circus Masters on their circus shows.
Simple enough, because aaj wasn't paying him enough and there was not much room to excel in his career
Both are drain to the senses. Is there no credible channel out there?? I guess the channels represent the general Pakistani public. Bigots and extremists.
You have spelled 'enter' wrong
Why Talat left aaj was beyond me
Same faces, same channels, same affiliations. What is new?
