GEO does it again!!
Posted by anas on Jul 17, 2008 in Pakistan | 6 commentsIt’s GEO again with their careless, absurd and nonsensical reporting. So what is it this time? The famous red BREAKING NEWS tape appeared reporting the death of the legenday poet Ahmed Faraz in Chicago, while he was still alive, going through hell. This appeared on their TV channel as well as their up-to-date website. An hour or so later, another news item appeared on the same site reporting the severe illness of Ahmed Faraz. No apologies, no regrets! What should we call this? Independence of media? Newsmaking? Or simply bullshit?
You can see the image of both the news items that appeared online (note the timestamp). It’s time someone should sue these newsmakers.
Whether Ahmed Faraz lives or not is a different issue, the news certainly expose the irresponsible behaviour of the most popular (is it?!) and least responsible news channel of Pakistan.
Their slogan should be rearranged to JEENAY DO, GEO!



somebody should teach them a lesson…how can they do this and without any accountability….ridiculous…
Ufff,
I am up to my neck with this red patti.
i bet the next breaking news for them would be Yousuf Raza Gilani’s bowel movements …
disgusting …
Goodness! And look at the second report in which they claim that the news of his death was reported by state television! They reported it themselves, we are all witness to it!
They should close their channel now… But then again, they’re a shameless lot!
Geo –> JEO –> JEW
If you ask me, the Ahmed Faraz family has every right to sue these assholes. And I hope they do!
Hay bro u have misspelled legendary in the second line.. wat eva this goddamn bloodyy channel.. these bloodyy assholes shud be sued!! mann i jus saw with my naked eye that they reported thmselves an they say its acoording to a state television… bloodyy liars!!!
Geo!! Hamien Jeene Do!!!!!
