Pakistan Press & Media Council Pakistan Press and Media Counsel . . . official The second is the defence of press freedom.

Pakistan Press Media Council
The first is the administration of an agreed Code of Practice and the investigation of complaints from members of the public about editorial content in the media. Some Press Councils fulfil explicitly only the first function – but in doing so must balance the rights of the individual and the rights of the press to freedom of expression. Press Councils are self-regulato

ry bodies set up by the media themselves – although they are normally given a high degree of operational independence in order to maintain public confidence. They oversee Codes of Practice which set out both professional standards for journalists, and a set of rules under which people featured in the news media can complain if something is inaccurate or intrusive. These Codes generally contain ethical rules that are over and above legal requirements. Press Councils represent a form of corporate responsibility which allow people to complain for free and without legal representation, and can help generate trust in the quality of news.

Organization

The International Media Council and Peace Through Media is committed to promoting, "peace through media". Though it recognises that the business of publishers is to sell newspapers, it believes that the media has an ethical responsibility for encouraging harmony in today's Middle East. Convinced that the honesty or dishonesty in the media affects the mental health of the world, the Council believes that freedom of expression has a price. This price is continual vigilance - in particular vigilance in identifying and exposing the encouragement of malice or war, and the incitement of hatred in print and image
