Hunting For The Most Trusted News On Pakistan

Have you ever stumbled on a fantastic article and wanted to share it with the whole world? The Huffington Post has teamed up with NewsTrust to give you the opportunity to do just that.

Commencing today and ending on Sunday, August 9, NewsTrust members will join forces with HuffPost's Eyes & Ears investigators to find quality journalism on events in Pakistan.

NewsTrust is a community of journalists and citizens like you, who rate the news based on quality, not just popularity, by reviewing articles for accuracy, fairness, context and other journalistic qualities.

Severe poverty, terrorism, and regional tension are just some of the challenges Pakistan faces today. We're looking for good journalism that explains how these issues are shaping the lives of Pakistanis, as well as the region and the world.

Joining the News Hunt is easy and fun -- and you can contribute your expertise in just minutes, or get more involved if you like. You simply review stories listed on our Pakistan News Hunt page or submit interesting articles you have come across on this topic. As you start reviewing more stories, you will learn more about this important subject, and share the results with our community to make us all more informed citizens.

At the end of this two-week News Hunt, HuffPost's Eyes & Ears in partnership with HuffPost World will feature the top rated stories that you have rated the most important for our readers to see.

To get started, just sign up on NewsTrust's special sign-up page for Huffington Post members. This will let you review stories on NewsTrust and get the full benefit of their free service. Join the News Hunt and get more informed while helping to spread good journalism!

NewsTrust will also be holding a group training via conference call at 6pm EST on July 29 for all those interested in learning how to take full advantage of their service. Email [e-mail] to RSVP and the good people at NewsTrust will send you the meeting details.

The news widget below shows some of the top stories we have found so far in this Pakistan News Hunt. Take a look, rate them and hunt for even better articles on Pakistan.

This looks like a military channel. I have facebook friends in Pakistan who tell me that the people all know why the U.S. is there -- the oil & gas in Central Asia.

I, of course, realize you're asking for more than the obvious choices like Dawn and Jang.

There is little news from the MSM. It seems like Afghanista­n,Pakistan and Iraq have fallen off the map since the Anointed One took office on January 20th.

Actually, it was months before that. Nice try to take an oblique shot at President Barack Hussein Obama though.
