Good Morning Pakistan: Journalists Under Threat | 101 East

They work in one of the most dangerous and conservative areas of Pakistan.

"Where I come from, women are not usually allowed to get an education," says Khalida Niaz, who went on a hunger strike to convince her father to let her finish school.
Now, she is a radio newsreader for the Tribal News Network, which broadcasts across Pakistan's troubled border region with Afghanistan.
