--Benjamin Franklin
Well Dear Pakistani! I must convey to you that If a little knowledge is dangerous, so is a lot of ignorance which leads to pettiness, fear, dogmatism, egotism, prejudice and dull criticism and that is the feeling what I found throughout this mail . Though, to me, This mail is nothing but amongst hundreds of those mails which are written by a single "self- acclaimed well settled critic mind" and being spread to hundred of peoples and those hundred of peoples considering it a "Sadqa-e-Jaiyah" forward this mail without any particular perception or viewpoint for the relevant material.
Skipping the prologue and coming to the point, this mail contains some very interesting "facts" which compelled me to write the reply for this mail. I must also clear that I am neither a Die Hard Fan of GEO nor a paid employee not even a Blind Supporter, but only an unbiased viewer who at the same time, value and criticize GEO's programs and policies with open mindedness and if necessary, criticize them logically. any way coming to the point.
The first allegation about GEO is " being funded by USA and Jew Lobby to create harasses frustration and nuisance in the country". I can only say that this statement is very old but the "accused one" is new. It is a very common practice amongst "very patriotic Pakistani" people who enjoys accusing anything from NGO to Political party to a TV Channel (the new trend) being funded by JEW & American Lobby. My dear brother, do you know that our very own Pakistani Army has been supported & funded by American & Jew lobby from time to time for their particular agenda and the whole world knows about it, so if they back a famous TV Chanel then what is so special about it? Also, you did not provide any proof or evidence regarding your stance but I can provide you couple of authentic references regarding my stance relating to Pakistan Army.
Since I do not have any idea that why CNN & BBC didn't take any step when there was any ban on channels in India, China, Cuba etc therefore I cant answer for this but one should keep in mind that GEO is the biggest and most viewed private TV channel in Pakistan headed by Biggest Media group of Pakistan, therefore, are you expecting CNN and BBC talking about imposing the ban on low profile TV Channels like "Dhoom TV" or "Apna Channel"?? does it make any sense?
Now coming to answering yours mail point by point
GEO is not the only channel on this whole planet but media giants like CNN, BBC also shows such videos from time to time, worst one I remember this time was Ethiopian civil war videos when Commander Farah Eided's butchery was showed to all over the world not only in live Broadcast but in BBC's documentary afterwards. And mind you Pakistanis are not new to such photos & videos, thanks to Newspaper likes "Awam", "Evening special" and" Ummat" etc who, has already "developed" our taste to such videos, and photos, long time ago. But still my stance is that All TV channels specially GEO (being the leader) should avoid telecasting such incidents of massacres in their reports and news
Yar, If any of Indian news channel did not show Gujrat's Muslims massacre then whats your point? Their videos can be viewed on internet. Didn't you remember that Zee showed the videos of Tehelka.com exposing the corruption of Indian army regarding Arms and Ammunitions and resulted in the fall of DeoGoda government ( correct me if I am wrong). Gujrat's massacre videos were banned because it was a Hindu Muslim riot in which Hindu hooligans started that bloodbath so media somewhat remained biased throughout the incident. Didn't CNN show Bosnia's scenes of carnage to the whole world? If GEO showed the demolition of newly built SherShah Bridge in Karachi in Sept and didn't telecast the news of USA's Annapolis bridge devastation which was bigger calamity than Karachi Bridge then does it still prove your point?? ….so showing and not showing some news by some big news channel proves yours point for Geo being USA/ Jew lobby funded? Huh
If GEO is not concerned about Benazir or Nawazsharif wealth and property then still this is not the justification for yours accusation, everybody in Pakistan knows about BB and Nawazsharif 's corruption. Surrey Palace, Mr.10% , Yellow Cab scheme and the list is endless for both of them….don't you remember that weekly magazine " Takbeer" headed by Late Mr. Salah ud din exposed the "underground exclusive" photos of BB and her mother dancing and drinking in London? So what was the output? BB become the PM afterwards…did you forget the slogan of MQM in Karachi…. a picture of young lad having a Gun in his hand with the caption "Huqqoq ya Maut" could be seen all over Karachi during 80s to 90s…. So My brother !Every Pakistani is aware of the dishonesty and corruption of our beloved leaders but now people are not much concerned about these issues ….but they are more concern about their personal issues.
I personally do not like couple of programs of GEO and also criticize them.."Ghamdi",and "Aalim Online" are to name a few but at the same time I also appreciate the efforts of GEO for such programs like "Gumnaam" which you intentionally or unintentionally forgot to appreciate and mention…….programs like "hum Sab Umeed sey Hain" played an important role in exposing our politics and politicians but you also skipped it …….
Regarding Mukhtaran Maee I agree with you to some level…and I personally feel that it should not be highlighted in the media to such extent but on the other side incidents like Mukhtaran Maee gave courage to all other rape victims women that if they wont standup for their right& justice then they will continue to become the victims of such heinous& barbaric acts….
If Kamran Khan is getting 25Lakh per month from GEO then does it make him Corrupt?
If Dr. Shahid Masood is getting 22 Lakh from GEO and having a posh house in Dubai then does it make him Corrupt?
If Dr. Shahid Masood used to sit with girls during his college then does it make him a Bad Character? Yar please don't act as a" Stinky Jamati" be a gentleman I wonder if he used to sit with guys then you probably declare Dr. Shahid a GAY ….hahaha
If getting a good salary is a criteria of declaring someone a corrupt then Hey "Pakistani" if your father is a finance Director in some MNC and getting 15lakh per month then he must be a corrupt person right na?
What Dr. Shahid & Kamran khan are getting in terms of their salary is their personal issue combined with their expertise and capabilities…..Christian Amanpour of CNN is amongst the highest paid journalist on this planet does it make her Corrupt as well?
C'mon yar don't act as a loser…. come with some logical arguments and proper references… if getting high salary make someone corrupt then you must have a habit of declaring every high salary person as a "Master Corrupt"…..wow what a discovery you made…Bravo Bravo
Some of my friends are in senior managerial position at GEO at they told me that GEO is financially so strong that it can continue to pay its employees for 1 year or more without being broadcast so yelling over broadcasting for only 36 hour live transmission doesn't make any sense….one must keep in mind that GEO is headed by the largest media group of Pakistan having very strong financial assets
I personally find plenty of objectionable things in Dr. Amir Liaquat Hussain especially in religious matters which I wont discuss at this moment, but If Dr. Amir acted as a copycat and translated the dua of Imam e Kaaba then does it also make him a part of Jew lobby? Did he violated the "copyright act"of Iamam-e-Kaaba's dua or all Imam-e-Kaaba's dua are copyrighted which anyone cannot translate and say it on any occasion? And mind you…. 50% Pakistani people are not Jahil but Jahil are people are like you, who, without any logical support or references, enjoys declaring and labeling other as jahil, corrupt, Jew lobbyist etc etc…..if you have the guts then come up with sensible arguments & proofs.... as it has become very easy in our society to accuse someone without any logical reason and evidences.
And what can I discuss about yours self-declared conclusion that "A COUNTRY WHERE 60 percent of population cannot read and never been to school media must not be free"......The least I can do is to bang my head on the wall over such absurd declaration. God give you enough wisdom I pray.
In the last I request you (Mr. Pakistani- the writer of this mail) to read your own lines which will help you understanding my stance………. let me copy paste it for your ease
"Rasuul pak said…budd.GUMMANee nahi karna chahiyeh and he also said for a muslim to be liar is without any enquire /investigation he communicate"
Also, my request to all readers that please don't become a marketing tool for spreading such mails while considering it a Sadqa-e-Jariyah, such mails creates nothing but more annoyance, irritation, frustration, nuisance and aggravation in our society.
All readers are welcome to contribute to my reply, discuss it, criticize it …I will really appreciate it.
And I wonder if I could meet this guy who actually wrote this mail.
Remember me in yours prayers
Regards & Was'Salaam
