V. News channels were suspended after broadcasting a News Conference by Opposition Leader miriam shes the daughter of former Prime Minister nevadas sharif whos now in jail on corruption charges and in the past was twice ousted by the military so whats going on for more we have with us jilani from asia. Chapter 2 in a bit but 1st id just like to bring up what Reporters Without Borders said about the t. V. Channels being taken of they said this latest case of brazen censorship is indicative of disturbing dictatorial tendencies. That was Reporters Without Borders shows good to have you with us is this what is really happening in Prime Minister brown khans not up artist on new pakistan as he promised when he took over last. Thats something i have seen over the last year or so increasing control of the media and journalists there is a media crisis in pakistan some of it has to do with the Business Model because they relied heavily on government advertisement but what is happening behind the scenes is more insidious its the government and army together working to silence critics so they search of the advertising revenue and they tell multinational corporations not to place ads with certain newspapers but more and more columns are being censored and this is something we havent seen under civilian governments thats why a lot of my colleagues feel that this is probably one of the worst times for media in pakistan notions of you yourself to leave pakistan because you were facing these kinds of pressures what other things that you saw fast and so in this kind of environment when your journalists being taken off air without any reason journalists are being targeted everybody becomes cautious and what i saw was a lot of selfcensorship i was increasingly told not to touch certain subjects which was considered the critical of the military or the government and eventually basically did they went after i mean they pressured my news general to sack me this has happened with a lot of other colleagues and this kind of pressure essentially is very dangerous for a country because if you cant. Hold your government accountable you cant criticize their policies it takes us down a very authoritarian part and thats what a lot of people are worried about shows there gentlemen thank you so much for breaking that down for us.
