• Azhar Abbas, head of news, GEO TV
• Osama Javaid, chief editor, Dawn TV
• Syed Javed Nazir, former chief editor, The Frontier Post
• Hosted by Lawrence Pintak, founding dean of The Edward R. Murrow College of Communication, Washington State University, and author of The New Arab Journalist: Mission and Identity in a Time of Turmoil.
