media cynicism in pakistan

ok.one cant blame us pakistanis from being cynical.but do we really have to be disingeneious.also i have hardly come across constructrive crticism in the papers.if God forbid one was to give an alternative it would be entirely untenable and unrealistic.media in Pakistan is prone to sensationalism and doom and gloom.i guess that sells.but does it hurt to mix in some positives from time to time.i guess thats why blogs have become so popular.people hardly read or cade about mainstream media anymore.i was reading newsline and its report on Pakistan's victory in india recently.the writer starts off by referring to inzamam as being over the hill when he went to india.i stopped reading the article there and then.he might have been a bad captain.heck he still isnt the brightest even now.but over the hill?how,where and when was he over the hill.this might sound stupid but this illustrates our local journalist's abilty to make sweeping and false statements.one thing is for sure and that is that yes ever since inzy became captain pakistan lost to india at home and lost to austrailia away but his own performance has actually picked up in the past two years.in fact he is one the most reliable and consistent batsmen these days.one goes to gatherings and you see sweeping statements being passed all of which happen to be negative in nature.our premier news channel geo often breaks news that usually turns out to be false.our dailies are either totally for the government or totally against it.no one except for the daily times gives u both the negatives and positives.and last but not least what about investigative journalism?newsline and herald's investigative reporting is limited to karachi or sindh at best.what about the rest of the country.nada!
