"Adnan Rashid, head of Ansar Al Aseer, a TTP unit tasked with freeing their imprisoned militants, was announced dead when security forces pounded militant hideouts in Mir Ali, North Waziristan, in January 2014. Five months later, news emerged about his arrest from South Waziristan. Both the military and the Taliban denied the authenticity of the report. Some reporters say poor compensation is a reason behind this misreporting. “Even foreign wire services pay around Rs 1,200 per contribution to their stringers,” one reporter said. “Such reporters don’t care too much about authenticity, and want to make as many contributions as possible.” Another journalist said reporters sometimes mislead each other as well, because of professional jealousy."
