The media is a significant source for information and recreation. It can be used as a propaganda tool. In this regard, examples can be quoted of recent America-Iraq and America-Afghanistan wars.
The media is also playing important role in Pakistani society where it is providing recreation to the people. On the other hand, it is creating consciousness and developing the vision of the people.
There is a dire need to develop consensus on every sensitive issue so that we may become united. The media has become independent in Pakistan in the past few years but it has still years to go to become mature.
