A film about the diminishing freedom of Pakistani journalists...

The most important, original journalism uploaded to Current in months. Professional, timely, essential viewing. Clear the footage and get it to air. Thanks for bringing your fantastic investigation to Current.

This definitely needs to air, I am Pakistani-American and I think that what they are doing is barbaric. Pakistan has been getting more and more corrupt lately, that's why I don't want to even visit anymore.

POWERFUL! This should be fast tracked to TV (If there is such a thing).

Excellent report on Pakistan. Editing is excellent, the stock footage, use of photos within the report adds impact to the piece...
Musharraf's relationship with the U.S. government is well illustrated, a point that is not often highlighted by mainstream international media coverage of the ongoing political repression in Pakistan...
Excellent report. -
Excellent pod. This is a message that needs to be heard. Greenlight from me!

Informed pod. I've never really considered or heard of the extent of censorship in Pakistan, and this was a powerful denouncement. However, I did feel that the pod was a little too anti-American. I felt as if the Americans were portrayed as being behind Musharraf's media clampdown, rather than the General himself. I am British and certainly do not support the present US government's actions abroad, but you might have detracted from the Pakistani government's culpability by involving the 'big-bad-US'. Green light all the same.

This is an excellent pod; good sources, informative and above all interesting. Greenlight without hesitation.

Greetings for you. It's really good job. And it's so important to underline the pakistani role in the international struggle for nuclear. That's why United States overpassed easily the Musharraf crackdown on journalists and lawyers. Musharraf is a dictator but still good ally for USA.
Otherwise we should ask "What means Export Democracy for USA?" I know, it's just funny. Keep informing us. -
Great work!
Keep it up bro!
