But here I just mention role of Pakistani divided private media who is telecasting ball to ball commentary from last 15 days. Why they are sacrificing their huge advertisements? Who will pay their salaries for august? Marathon transmissions are there along with the bankruptcies of their anchors and intellectuals. From the twisted statement of Javed Hasmi till concocted stories regarding ISPR’s press release sensationalism and twisted facts are part of marathon transmissions. Just imagine, source of many breaking news is Twitter these days which has many fake accounts.  It looks that script writer is following lawyer movement coverage of 2007 -9 and Tahreer Squire Agitation of Egypt. Interestingly one of the leaders of marches is also referring Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak. But smartly, he is not telling end story of that so-called revolution to public which had ended at an army rule. Here below, am reproducing an article which will explain twists of electronic and social media.
