more importantly we need to focus more on the terror elements increasing in our country rather then this issue. Pakistan has to accept the fact that it is in a state of War. The media should understand that issues such as the success of Pakistan Army should be highlited more then such issues! The media needs to play a positive role in airing moderate elements to ease the feel of uncertainity in the country.
