Curbs on the media

I've noticed that whenever conditions deteriorate so much that the
people want the government to resign, the media is attacked. This
happened even in the days when Ayub Khan, Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, Benazir
Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif were the rulers. Apparently our politicians
believe that it's the newspapers and TV channels that are responsible
for their predicaments, not their own misdeeds.
