[quote]Dear all, Geo-News has started another infotainment program called "Ghamidi". The program is hosted by Mr. Asif Iftikhar and as I perceive it, it will inolve a discussion on Mr. Ghamidi's views on some contemperory issues. The program profile is available on Geo Website, the link is given below: http://geo.tv/geonews/program.asp?pid=530 This topic is initiated to discuss anything regarding this program, to start with, I have a few discussion points: 1) Why is this program named as "Ghamidi", should the purpose of this program be to convey Mr. Ghamidi's thoughts only, or other viewpoints will also carry equal weightage here as well? 2) The program is hosted by Muaz Ahsan Ghamidi, son of Mr. Ghamidi, and hosted by Mr. Asif Iftikhar (student of Mr. Ghamidi) - Does that sacrifise the objectivity of this program? 3) The format of the program is such that the Host and Mr. Ghamidi are sitting together, and the 4 other participants are seated away from them. By giving Mr. Ghamidi a superior chair, distant from the rest, there is an implicit suggestion that he is more knowledgable than the rest of participants. This further indicates the participants can only put questions to him, reducing any chances of criticism, or differing viewpoints from the participants to get through. For example, in my opinion, in the first episode, the criticism from a participant, Hafiz Tahir was not getting approval from the host. The host was on a totally different track altogether, giving more air-time to Mr. Ghamidi than Hafiz Tahir. I ll appreciate if people comment on the above issues. Regards, Salman[/quote]
