THIS is apropos of a startling story captioned 'Some newspapers publish fake WikiLeaks cables against India' (Dec 10) which reveals the utter irresponsibility and negative journalism by some of our national dailies. One conservative and irresponsible English daily even came up with highly negative editorial littered with propagandist views on Friday. Since the bomb of the whistle-blowing website blasted, only this paper has shown complete responsibility and authenticity while publishing the revelations by WikiLeaks.
Why didn't our media focus on the revelations like 'Army's continued support for Taliban and Lashkar-i-Taiyba', 'Army's excessive meddling into the state affairs', 'Prime Minister Gilani's secret support for drone attacks', 'politicians' hypocritical role', and 'the dual play by major leaders of Islamic world'? Most of our national dailies have tried to highlight those issues which were not our real issues. Most revelations have been concocted and forged. Shame for our media except Dawn Media Group.NABEEL ANWAR DHAKKU Chakwal
