ISLAMABAD: Prominent anchorpersons Masood Raza (pictured) and Huma Amir Shah will host a morning show on upcoming BOL News Television.
 
A source tells JournalismPakistan.com the channel's management has been working on the design of the morning show while both journalists rehearse for the program.
