Who is promoting the Sons and Daughters of politicians - 2

I read regularly The News, The Express Tribune, and Urdu daily Express.

The only reason I read The Express Tribune is that International Herald Tribune comes with it almost free. Just in Rs. 19 one can read both papers.

So, that’s my limitation. I keep an eye how prominently these newspapers place pictures / statements of the Sons and Daughters of politicians. Of course, it’s the prerogative of the administration and the editorial staff of these newspapers how and where they place the pictures / statements of the Sons and Daughters of politicians. But at the same time, as a reader it’s my right to judge what such coverage amounts to and why the Sons and Daughters of politicians are given such prominence. In most of such coverage, I don’t see any news value, relevance, or any such thing, which could justify their placement at such top places.

Here is what was published during the last few weeks in the above-mentioned newspapers:

[The News, Back Page, April 3, 2013]

[The Express Tribune, Top of the Page 5, April 4, 2-13]

[The Express Tribune, Top of the Front Page, April 8, 2013]

[The Express Tribune, Top of the Front Page, April 15,2013]

[The Express Tribune, Top of the 2nd Page, April 20, 2013]

[The Express Tribune, Top of the Front Page, April 24, 2013]

[The Express Tribune, Top of the Page 3, April 30, 2013]
