DAWN NEWS
Dawn News was
Pakistan's 24-hour Urdu news channel. Based in Karachi, the station is a
subsidiary of Pakistan Herald Publications Limited (PHPL), Pakistan's largest
English-language media group. The test transmission of the station occurred on
May 25, 2007, and the channel went live on July 23, 2007. On May 15, 2010, Dawn
News converted into an Urdu news channel after successful test transmission of
four hours a day. The conversion is mainly due to its financial crisis and thin
viewership in the country. Now Express 24/7 replaced it as the Pakistan's only
English news channel for a brief time, which was also then shut down by Express
Media Group for financial reasons.
