Cat filter minister from KP makes it to Stephen Colbert's show

Cat filter minister from KP makes it to Stephen Colbert's show

He thinks KP's Shoukat Yousafzai's next order of business will be calling for a national ban on dogs!
20 Jun, 2019

A press conference called by Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa's Minister of Information Shoukat Yousufzai became a subject of hilarity recently after the person running its live broadcast on Facebook accidentally activated... the cat filter!

Photos of Yousufzai and his fellow ministers sporting cat ears and whiskers quickly went viral — even late night talkshow host, Stephen Colbert had something to say about it!

"This member of the Pakistani government accidentally live-streamed his press briefing with the cat filter on," he explained adding in an impersonation: "I'm calling for a national ban on dogs!"

He did also say he likes it: "I think a lot more people would watch the Democratic debates if they used a filter or two."

You think PEMRA will send him a notice?

Haha PEMRA is too busy patrolling trivial matters in Pakistan. I don't like Colbert but this was funny.

All in good taste. I like it, especially the double entendre on dogs!

I think it was no accident instead it was a smart tactic to get popular. Look now everyone knows the minister (i.e. almost the whole world) otherwise who would have known who is Shoukat Yousufzai. I call it genius.
