geo news is a Pakistani news channel owned by the Jang Media Group.[1] It was launched in October 2002 as the news and current affairs program was under its flagship channel Geo TV, which later in 2004, Geo TV decided to launch its own news channel.

History

[edit]

The Geo Television Network started out with the launch of its flagship channel Geo TV in October 2002 but has since launched several other channels which include the following:[1]

News stories from Geo News that are conspicuously promulgated by Google News include stories focusing on show business personalities and the British Royal Family.

Controversies

[edit]

Suspension

[edit]

Geo news has been criticized for naming Pakistan's military generals and ISI officials. They were banned in June 2014 for their accusation against the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency and its chief Lt. Gen Zaheerul Islam for attacking leading journalist Hamid Mir.[2]

Owner's statements

[edit]

In 2018, the employees of Geo News were not paid for three months and the editor-in-chief was summoned to explain the situation. Imran Aslam, an executive of Geo Network said, "This is an attempt to financially cripple the organization into submission." The news channel owner has also been summoned by the court in the past on the issue of non-payment of employee salaries.[3]
