GEO TV, Pakistan's premier Urdu news channel, also seen round the world as the main source of news and current affairs, was shut down at 1 a.m. Pakistan time (12 midnight Dubai time) after President Pervez Musharraf put tremendous pressure to silence a media outlet which had refused to bow down to his dictates.

Informed sources said President Pervez Musharraf himself intervened to stop all GEO news transmissions from Dubai, after a two-week standoff in Pakistan during which all major news channels were shut down by cable operators, who are directly controlled by the Pakistani authorities

  • GEO is the biggest ...

    GEO is the biggest drama queen in news broadcasting and wouldn't know professionalism if it slapped them across the face. They take advantage of uneducated people and use sensationalism to make money, just like Indian channels. It was a great idea to take them off the air during this period but I hope they come back more mature and without Shahid Masood.
