DAWN - PAKISTAN'S MOST WIDELY CIRCULATED ENGLISH LANGUAGE NEWSPAPER

Published from Karachi and read throughout Pakistan, DAWN enjoys nation-wide influence. It has a week day circulation of 95,446 copies and a total readership in excess of 524,953. The newspaper is read every morning by policy and decision makers in the public and private sectors, at federal and provincial government level and by the majority of Pakistan's English reading newspaper public. Founded by the Quaid-e-Azam, Mohammad Ali Jinnah, DAWN began publication in 1947, immediately after Independence. Throughout its publishing history, DAWN has distinguished itself by an unwavering commitment to create the professional standards and build the institutions necessary to the growth of a free, independent and respected national press. Today, DAWN is Pakistan's most authoritative newspaper, respected for its uncompromising, accurate and impartial track record in news reporting and comment. With the approach of a new century, DAWN looks ahead to further challenges, confident that irrespective of their nature, the newspaper will be there - reporting, commenting, influencing public opinion and when necessary, acting as a medium for change.

EDITORIAL EXCELLENCE

DAWN is backed by a strong editorial team including some of Pakistan's most respected and distinguished journalists, more than 200 correspondents in Pakistan and abroad and an extensive syndication and wire service network. With its headquarters in Karachi, DAWN has regional offices in Islamabad, Lahore, Quetta and Peshawar. Every morning the newspaper provides up-to-the minute comprehensive coverage of the main political, business and human interest stories of the day.

The newspaper's editorial includes features on education, the environment, health, lifestyle, science, technology and sport. DAWN's Editorials are recognised as one of the most influential in the country. The Letters to the Editor page is a lively forum in which topics of public interest are vociferously debated. Frequently, issues aired in those pages have subsequently been acted upon by the relevant institutions in the public and private sectors.

DAWN completes its weekly package with two midweek-magazines, the Tuesday Review and Young World. On Fridays, DAWN publishes the respected Friday Magazine and Images, a weekly review of Pakistan's lively entertainment scene.
