‘Enough is enough’: Journalist Asma Shirazi condemns harassment campaign against her
Dawn.com | Nadir Guramani Published January 12, 2025 Updated about 5 hours agoSenior journalist Asma Shirazi on Sunday denounced a persistent harassment campaign targeting her and other female journalists, saying “enough is enough”, as prominent media figures endorsed a petition by the Digital Rights Foundation (DRF) calling for an end to organised harassment by political parties.
The petition has so far been signed by over 60 figures in print, television, and digital media.
Speaking to Dawn.com, Shirazi said that political parties have executed targeted harassment campaigns against female journalists for some time now, stating that the petition by the DRF showed that these campaigns will no longer be tolerated.
“I have been made a target several times,” she said. “I’m made a subject of discussion to intimidate and threaten others.”
