Sana's Dunya stint ends

ISLAMABAD: Less than six months after joining Dunya TV, talk show host Sana Bucha has parted ways with the channel.


In a tweet Monday she said that these elections, the channels and anchors in Pakistan are up for sale. “I refuse to put a price tag on myself. Left Dunya of my own free will.”


There were reports however she had been fired.

 

Sana arrived at Dunya from Geo TV in November last year. She first resigned from Geo in June over the appointment of the controversial Dr Amir Liaquat Hussain who returned to the channel from ARY and was appointed as the vice president.

 

She said at that time she quit “because Geo was itself going against what it taught me.” But somehow she was persuaded to stay on.

 

However, she quit again because of the ‘good doctor’. She was said to be upset over the doctor being asked to host a special program on Malala Yousufzai, the child education activist, shot by the Taliban.
