Pakistan’s Geo News, the leading TV channel, has notched up history by emerging as an international standard-bearer with its panoptic 2024 election coverage, outperforming both local and global competitors in terms of timeliness, credibility, and impartiality.

Noted for its unbiased reporting, Geo News became the go-to source for credible information, piling up an impressive 10 million hours of total viewership. This supremacy also extended to social media, where its coverage garnered a staggering 237 million views across various platforms in the last three days.

YouTube remained the key battleground, with Geo News’s coverage whipping up nearly 120 million views, outflanking its competitors. Further cementing its dominance, the channel pulled off a record-breaking peak viewership of over 300,000 users on YouTube.

During the general elections, a team of reporters went to every nook and corner across the country to cover news and election-related activities.

The transmission highlighted even the district politics, critical contests, manifestos and the chances of victory of various candidates.

“Geo has set an international standard on how to cover a complex election like Pakistan,” a senior foreign diplomat said in a message to Geo News.

Apart from this, all the important news and different aspects of the elections were presented uniquely.

These two Indian journalists also appreciated Geo News’s election coverage.

Imran Khan’s former focal person on digital media Arsalan Khalid praised Geo News for its “best election transmission on the mainstream media.”

Even Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), a ruthless critic of Geo, also praised and relied on the channel’s credible election coverage.

Many international media outlets and wire services quoted Geo News in their reports, while netizens also liked its election transmission.
