Pakistan: damage control


US buys TV ads in Pakistan

21 September, 2012

The United States has bought time on Pakistani television stations to run a series of advertisements in a bid to stem Muslim protests against the movie.

A State Department spokesperson says the ad will run on seven Pakistani TV channels to try to disassociate the US government from the inflammatory film, AFP reports.

The 30-second ad shows clips of President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton taken from speeches they made since the violence flared in Muslim nations last week.
