Fake news

Our society is on the verge of moral collapse and the worst part is that we are oblivious of this fact. Our society has become addicted to spicy news to such an extent that a proper diagnosis of social issues has become near to impossible. Take the example of Shahid Masood’s recent claim about Zainab’s killer.

Although the claim was suspicious and lacked substance from the first day, it spread like a wildfire. I am sure that the Pakistani people will continue to believe his claim for decades to come.
