Pakistani social media circles continue to bear witness to an influx of fake accounts. Among a recent trend is a rise of Twitter handles posing as foreigners, often upholding claims that bear uncanny resemblance to the state’s narrative.
Recently a foreign female blogger tweeted: “No one in the world respects women as much as Pakistani men.” And not so surprisingly, all hell broke loose. Many started to share this as ‘proof’ that women are safe in the country, unlike the claims of ‘leftist and liberal’ media and activists. Meanwhile, the leftist media and personalities started bashing Katherine George over the tweet.

And then came Trump… or did he? Journalists all over the world hold their heads in despair, some even in shame. We are all tarred now with the ‘fake news’ brush, fingers point at traditional/mass media and the verdict is that we are all guilty. We’ve apparently eroded the confidence of our audiences by taking sides and peddling lies, and we have damaged democracy in the process.
The fact is, journalists are easy scapegoats in societies enamoured of their new social media friends, who aren’t quite ready to accept their part in propagating what we have come to call ‘fake news’. Who hasn’t shared, liked and praised stories, memes or pictures without fact-checking them, just because they came from someone familiar, even if vaguely so?
