BOL extends ownership to five senior journalists

ISLAMABAD: BOL Media Network announced Saturday they will be sharing their ownership with five senior journalists and anchorpersons who recently joined them.

 

The journalists are Waseem Badami, Iftikhar Ahmad, Asma Shirazi, Muhammad Usama Ghazi and Nadeem Raza. In a statement, the network said that it has already shared ownership with two senior journalists, Azhar Abbas and Kamran Khan.


"BOL congratulates members of the league on achieving this prized membership which will result in a substantial contribution to their lifestyle with up to Rs200 million added to their income at the ownership grade after 5 years," the network said in a press release.


BOL termed the Ownership League a revolutionary and unprecedented initiative in Pakistan’s media history because for the first time an entire league of professionals will own a media house and not simply one individual.
