CBC / MQM - STOP the Media Bias against Innocent
We the undersigned would like to draw the attention of the CBC administration to the following:
On Friday April 3rd, 2009, CBC broadcasted a documentary regarding the presence of Pashtun Taliban in Karachi, Pakistan. The claims, comments and conclusions made in this video report lack substance, and factual analysis. The report wholly subscribes to the views and opinions of MQM- an ethnic local political Party. Pashtun Community of Canada was outraged to watch this documentary, unfairly and untruthfully portraying all Pashtuns in Karachi as Terrorists. Like the producer of CBC, we too are worried about the increased influence of Taliban across the region, but the CBC made a journalistic error by focusing only one side of the story and ignoring the consequences of this one sided documentary for the two million plus Pashtuns in Karachi; particularly for the newly arrived refugees forced by the Taliban and the military out of their homes and towns in the North. We the undersigned demand CBC to stop this media bias against innocent Pashtuns who are themselves victims of terrorism. We believe that by portraying all Pashtuns as a Taliban or terrorist will damage the anti Taliban struggle initiated by Pashtuns around the world.
