Q. 2 Discuss the working of
news agencies in Pakistan.
SOLULTION:
A news agency is an institution that
accumulate news stories and further sells them to their subscribing news
networks like newspapers, magazines, radio, television networks
and individuals who are interested in attaining them. A news agency might also
be labelled as a newswire, news service or wire service. News agencies do not
circulate or publish their news themselves; they accumulate the news and sell
those news to their clients and subscribers. Pakistani news agencies are
selling news reports of recent matters to news channels and newspapers like a
fresh cake. Various Pakistan news agencies hold global/ local names such as: -
AFP Agence France-Presse- NNI Network News International
- Online International News Network
- Pakistan-International Press Agency
- Bizmen News Network (BNN)
- UPP United Press of Pakistan Ltd. and various others establishments.
As per procedure and
working point of view a newspaper has its own rules and regulations and
particular administrative strategies whereas, news agency cannot shape an
explicit policy. A news agency deal with its customers and subscribers in
various zones of the world with its precise policies and procedure on diverse
matters. Hence, a news agency is restricted to follow an impartial and
unprejudiced, objective and indifferent tactic in its journalism and amenities
for the satisfaction of the clients and subscribers.
One might search the contact information of entire international and local news agencies in many cities of country. The time and cost effectiveness are somewhat pertinent for the clients. The customers are watching for complete information regarding the well-known and specialized News Agencies Directory that provide them an overall concept and image of all the listed news agencies in the country.
