History of the world reveals that people and territories in power attempts to subdue their rivals in order to impose their system of beliefs and life style. In doing so, they kill the truth in first attempt to let the others things follow. Since the Cold War ended, the United States of America needed en enemy to make other countries of the world released its economic system, military might and technological advancement. The think-tank of America found the Islamic way of life a threat for its future and exposed its policy after waging a war against Muslims all over the world in an attempt to dictate others to follow its life style according to its culture specific and historically determined system of beliefs. How can the people of the revealed scripture comply with the system of belief and life style Americans experience? But, some of the Muslims are confused due to the manipulative international media. The media giants are working against the Muslims openly and in the garb of some other names.
In this regard, our media could have played a sensible role to inform its audience about the real picture of the volatile world since the war brought out against the Muslims. A newspaper or a news channel or the medium of radio ought to call a spade a spade. Every newspaper and news channel so claims. In Pakistan, the print and electronic media seem to be economically viable to keep its correspondents posted all over the world to make their audiences informed about the true state of affairs. The entire world is seeing the one side of the coin. To know the other side of the coin, the print and electronic media in Muslim world must broaden their sphere of reporting to reach the real state of affairs and uncover the dirty face of the manipulative media.
