The document outlines Geo News' post-split programming strategy. It discusses establishing different types of news bulletins, including "flavored bulletins" targeted towards specific demographics. Research insights are presented on audience preferences and when different age/gender groups watch television. The programming schedule is divided into zones based on this research. New shows are announced for Phase 1, including enhanced flagship programs, a 3-hour morning show, an entertainment news program, and weekly investigative and business programs.
What is news?
News is the report of a current event, something that was not known, information of recent events and happenings.
News is anything printable
What is news today is often not news tomorrow
Oxford Dictionary defines it as “New information, the report of latest incident”.
News comprises all current activities which are of general human interest and the best news is that which interests most of the reader
News is, anything out of the ordinary, it is the current happenings

Soft news - refers to the stories that provide other background information about world events, human interest stories or entertainment news

Prominence ( well- known people are talked about; they make news)
Human interest (something we can relate to emotional
Conflict (fight)

Attract High Value Publicity - Be Seen on TV, Radio, Podcasts, Print & BlogsDale Thomas Vaughn
My media system has earned hundreds of millions of impressions for my clients on major media outlets. Imagine yourself in your ideal audience's most trusted news, radio, podcast or television... what are the possibilities for you if you were that well-known?
To schedule a strategy session with me to find out your best next steps, visit dalethomasvaughn.com/media-training
I help social entrepreneurs get seen and become well-known experts in their industry.
If you're tired of seeing someone else with less expertise in your field get all the media attention, I am going to teach you the secrets to build your profile, pitch your story, and create a campaign to become the go-to expert in your field.
I'm a big believer in teaching people how to fish, rather than simply catching fish and selling them to you (which is what publicists do). Most small companies and nonprofits can't afford and frankly don't need a publicist or PR firm - they just need the tools and the confidence to try to book themselves. That's what I love to do for entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders. Take the skills in-house and you'll have the ability to get media attention forever going forward.

4. Disclaimers
Certain elements/content of this presentation are not
for On Air Purposes.
Censor content sensitivity will be taken care of
before going on air.
Standard voice over artist for both male and female
will be used in all promotional vehicles
90% of the text/VO will be Urdu except English
programming and tickers
All IDs will have Geo’s family music on them
All the colors are Geo family
Graphical Elements for Bulletins will be more
enhanced than the ones in this presentation
5. “Tez” and “Happening” News
Happening/Taiz/Program Language
“News You Can Use”. Lifestyle and “Lite” News elements will
supplement the usually hard-core cadre of Hard News through an
assorted line-up of “lighter” and “Taiz” news bulletins and
programming. Hard News will not necessarily be negated, but
instead strengthened by user-friendly and easy to get elements in
inter and intra bulletin/program settings
Tone and Content will thus be tuned to fit into a “News You Can
Use” and “Cool to Know” categorization with appropriate SoundFX
and GFX (e.g. Fact Supers, Stat Slides etc) backed by the
appropriate stories (e.g. lifestyle, gadget tips for the upper SECs,
health, safety, domestic tips for lower SECs e.g. how to use the
web, how to finance a car etc.)
6. Brand Key…
Competitive Environment
The market and alternative choices as seen by the consumer and the
relative value the brand offers in that market
All sources of information on happenings available to Pakistanis
around
the world.
Beyond hard news - softer news, possibly segment based.
E.g. all new channels focusing towards infusing a blend of hard
facts mixed with light hearted information based segments.
Daily Times phenomenon – Factual content mixed with a
magazine element that provides people with the latest on gossip
and promotes the idea “Cool to know” and “News you can use” –
Sunday Magazine.
7. Brand Key…
Target
The person and the situation for which the Brand is always the best
choice, defined in terms of their attitudes and values, not just
demographics
Geo Strives to communicate with the “aware” and ‘forward thinking’
middle class so that they realize the importance of staying informed
and want to be the first to know.
We must aim at targeting women, youth and children.
Class + demographics
We should still be able to stimulate audiences but also manage
to tone down level of debate.
E.g. opening an account with women’s bank, useful tips etc.
Because of GEO they will be the “First to know”.
8. Brand Key…
Insight
That element of all you know about the target consumer and their
needs upon which the Brand is founded
“I watch news to use for future, otherwise it is mundane and not compelling”
(Housewife, 32 yrs, Hyderabad)
“News is boring, too political, not useful, and monotonous, depressing and I hate the
way it’s given to me”
(College student, 19 yrs, Govt. college Lahore)
Language, presentation, look, inspirational, compelling etc.
Our presenters need to be looked at as role models best examples of which
are Indian Anchors – trend setters.
We need to target aspects that go beyond rich and famous
Reduce the dose of politics.
9. Brand Key…
Benefits
Differentiating functional and emotional benefits that motivate purchase
Reinforce
Geo brings faster first – e.g. Elections
Honest, unbiased real news – more content on women and youth
Additional
No intellectual regurgitation
Diverse opinions
News You Can Use
Interactivity with the medium and message
Diverse content which will also appeal to youth and women
10. Brand Key…
Values & Personality
The brand values – what the brand stands for and believes in – and/or its
personality
Forward looking
Energetic
Approachable
Fresh & Colorful
Optimistic
Responsible
Aware
Aspiring
Attitude
Opinionated
Aggressive
If we were to apply all these characteristics to create a person, this
individual would be someone who would not only be able to accompany
you in your house but due to such a dynamic personality he would also
blend in perfectly externally
11. Brand Key
Reasons to Believe
The proof we offer to substantiate the positioning
Established credibility & reputation of delivering on
promises.
Discriminator
The single most compelling and competitive reason for the
target consumer to choose the brand
Geo news keeps you abreast with all the latest in life.
Discover the positive side of knowing what’s happening.
12. Brand Key
Essence
The distillation of the brand’s genetic code
into one clear thought
Happening: Something that happens; an
event or an occurrence; a performance or
drama that develops spontaneously and
involves audience participation
Anything that is in, cool, active, current &
worth discussing
13. “New Look” Bulletins
New Geo News Bulletins
2 Categories of Geo News Bulletins
Regular yet Enhanced Bulletins which are reinforced by content and
reporting which is “tuned” for differing demographics and markets
throughout the day, e.g. more “Qaumi News” in the afternoons
Flavored Bulletins are actually dedicated to categorized news for distinct
demographics and markets, e.g. Yeh Hai Pakistan (a daily bulletin from the
“androon-e-mulk”), MetroLite News (a daily bulletin targeting the urban elite
with lifestyle tips and city diaries) and Score! (a daily ESPN Sports Center
type of sports show)
Importantly, this “Happening” format is backed by appropriate and
interactive GFX and SoundFX which increase the
“Taiz” element reflective of Fox News.
Language is also short, sharp and hard hitting, both informal and informative
at the same time, colloquial yet composed to drive content
Lets check out the Demo Bulletin…
14. Bulletin Logic
Time vs Data Sensitivity: All Bulletins generate and
focus on pertinent news during a compatibly
pertinent part of Geo’s 24 hr news day. Thus, news is
not generalized and repetitive.
Different Picks for Different Cliques: Bulletins are
Heterogenous rather than Homogenous,
generating audience specific data, for different
audiences, at different timings, in different qualities
and quantities.
Fresh Air Factor: From the Anchor to the Packaging to
the Branding, Bulletins will have a distinct, task-
specific “identity”
16. ARYONE WORLD
News at top of every hour with English news @ 18:00, 21:00 and 23:00 on

22. FPC Research
A Review of the Research…
GRAD has provided demographic viewer profiles and cross-tabulation for SECs,
Male/Female, Urban/Rural and Age groups for appropriate FPC slotting. Thus,
placement of programs is in synch with the demographical picture on the ground.
GRAD has also provided Genre comparisons for Indian and Local channels. This has
helped Geo News to create a content strategy and find the appropriate “mix” of
programming that is balanced according to audience lifestyles and preferences.
GRAD has also helped identify lifestyle/demographic “slots” throughout the week,
which Geo News has converted into “Sports Slots”, “Yuppie Slots” and “Rural Slots”
etc
GRAD has provided extensive qualitative and quantitative research for both
programming and viewership analysis through commissioned, syndicated and in-
house studies.
GRAD is currently working on anchor focus groups for News.
CMD has provided hours of footage of local, Indian and International channels for
content/genre strategy and program design. Many programs are thus based on
“inspiration” from some of the best shows in the local and global marketplace
23. FPC Research: Zone Logic
FPC “Zones” identified through research
Zone 1: 0600 -1200: Family oriented; is male heavy in its
first half and female heavy in its second half. The
emphasis is “lite”
Zone 2: 1200 -1500: The “Qaumi” Zone; viewership is both
male (working) and female (domestic) heavy
Zone 3: 1500 - 1800: Youth Dominated Zone with urban
emphasis, yet a strong rural element
Zone 4: 1800 - 2000: Adult-Youth Zone bifurcation with
urban emphasis
Zone 5: 2000 - 0100: Transitions from Female to Male
Domination with urban emphasis
24. FPC Research: Zone Logic
TIME ALLOCATED TO TELEVISION IN A DAY BY ALL GENDERS
1. Housewives
12 p.m. to 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. to 12 p.m. (At that time frequency level of watching TV among females is very
high)
9 a.m. to 12 p.m. (At that time the frequency level of watching TV among females is relatively high)
2. Male Adults
6 a.m to 9 p.m and 6 p.m. to 12 p.m. are preferred zones for adult males, with viewership relatively high in the
“high noon” slots
3. Early Teens
11 a.m. to 6 p.m. (Frequency level of watching TV is very high)
6 p.m. to 12 p.m. (At that time frequency level of watching TV steadily lowers)
4. Young Adult
4 p.m. to 12 p.m. (Frequency level of watching TV is very high)
11 a.m. to 4 p.m. (Frequency level of watching TV is very low)
Housewives and young adults spend almost half of their day in front of TV.
Whereas in the case of early teens and male adults the time varies depending on the school days / working days
and vacations.
25. Phase 1: What’s New?
Flavored Bulletins (Yeh Hai Pakistan, MetroLite, SCORE!)
Enhanced Flagship Programming (e.g. Expanded Tezi Mandee
w/ Market-Roundup and softer Weekend version + Expanded
AKKKS w/ “Newsnight” elements)
Subah Se Geo (3 hr morning umbrella show with links): A Morning
show w/ Fox and Friends elements of morning chatter. Hosts range
on a 1+1+1 format, with a “News guy” a “Sports guy” and a “Cute
girl” who actually discuss the news instead of just casting it.
Features someone like Ghazi Salahuddin hosting a morning papers
review segment called Aaj Ka Akhar, a Sports Quarter, and
subsequent linking to an E-News Show
Sab Bata Doon?! (20 mins, late morning slot): E-News in its
essence. Lolly/Bolly/Hollywood gossip and developments, plus an
in-house promotional vehicle for Geo Entertainment which features
updates and developments on Geo Soaps and Dramas. Featuring
behind the scenes reporting, slotted in the morning for a female
heavy time-slot
26. Phase 1: What’s New?
Biz Bytes (20 mins weekly, evening slot): A “power-meeting” show
featuring hard-talk with the corporate elite, based in a restaurant
setting to capture the “power” aspect
F.I.R (20 mins weekly, evening slot): Geo’s own CSI, only factual.
Featuring aggressive follow ups of the latest crimes, creating
campaigns for justice, holding sting operations
Chittee Ayee Hai (20 mins weekly, evening slot): A feedback show
supported by clips of programming which has been fed-back by
audiences, this is a "best of” program from the week's broadcast. A
single anchor drives the show with SMS, Email and letters. The
mood is kept lite through bloopers etc.
Gillette World Sport (20 mins weekly, evening slot): Arguably the
world’s most famous magazine sports show, now in Urdu.
New Infotainment programming (20 mins, evening slot): Lifestyle,
Food, Music, Literature, Wheels and Cinema, slotted every evening
after the news.
27. Phase 1: What’s New?
Other New/Spice Elements
Increased Interactivity: Through “send us your neighbourhood’s
news” by Emailing/Writing/Texting/Calling facilities which are
regularly promoted on an inter and intra bulletin setting
Intra Promotion: Anchors promoting each other and their programs
through graphical and content support
Geo Aankhen: Eye in the Sky elements which zooms in anywhere
in the world for beepers, reporting, natural disasters. Could even be
developed for Sports, even traffic updates for MetroLite News
GeoBot: Animated character w/ Voice synchronization. Could be
used for Tech News/DSS. Subesequently, an animated weathergirl
could be established
Geo Heli-Cam: Access to remote areas in case of national
disasters, or bird’s eye views of cities in case of an urban riot or
blast, Geo Heli-Cam will connect the people to the scene of the
news, nation-wide.
28. FPC Logic: What is it based on?
The FPC is based on demographic-specific viewer “zones”
which are mapped on urban/rural, gender-based, social and
lifestyle elements sanctified by data from GRAD
“Seamless” programming is targeted
Weekend vs Weekday programming is based on urban
habits/lifestyles
All Current News Programming has been retained
Certain Infotainment/SP2 Programming has be retained.
Pipeline programming from those two departments will also
be considered by News for its line-up in the future
0600 hrs to 0100 hrs is regarded as the ‘TV Day’. 0100 to 0559
hrs are repeat slots and have not been slotted yet
Some proposed programming has ‘working titles’
HLN is always @ the top of the hour, unless a bulletin is slotted
for that slot
29. What about Live Strategy and
Programming?
News will adopt a strategy of ‘pacing’ live
content through Phases 1, 2 and 3 (its been
assumed all live programming so far is from DXB).
Geo News’ eventual goal is to achieve “program
seamlessness” with city to city and studio to studio
switching (resonant of Fox News) where the
“news never stops”, but can only be achieved
through more live facilities and privileges in
Pakistan

NEWS @ 12
68. The Road Ahead: Q3…
Dateline Pakistan: Inspired by BBC's Dateline London, Dateline Pakistan is a
single anchor, 3-4 panelist show which can have a stationary or a travelling
version, where journalists are interviewed on their take about a certain
issue/s or the entire news week. The working version of the stationary show
should probably be in ISB, where foreign correspondents and bureau chiefs
are at hand for sharing their views. A serious show for the avid news
watcher. English language based.
Hum Jawaan: A "life in the military" reality show. Has to be ISPR approved.
Envisions anchor training and operating with the Army, Airforce and Navy.
PD suggests 2 options which can be adopted. One version is pacing the
show for a single season, where army/airforce/navy are experienced
together. Another version is pacing the show for at least 3 seasons by
dedicating each season to each wing of the armed forces, with perhaps a
fourth season dedicated to the police. The brand key is to "get tough" as
well as "love your country". Slotted in the youth heavy slot
.
69. The Road Ahead: Q3…
Political Puppetry: Inspired by NDTV's Gustakhi Maaf. Rafi
Peer has been contacted for production purposes for this
one. It's "best of" segments can be used as fillers as
well.
You Decide: IVR, SMS, Email and Call-in show which is a
daily poll of a chosen hot-topic. You Decide is a call-
center servicing the country's opinions. Featuring a
single-anchor with a guest or two. The brand is "the
country has spoken". Value is added by smart graphics
showing the results for savvy questions in real-time.
70. The Road Ahead: Q3…
Sarak Chap: A "Roadumentary" which can take on different thematics. PD has
envisioned atleast a couple. Sarak Chaap Chef, where the anchor travels
the country with a "roving cam" take on Pakistan's most famous urban
legend: food. From Quetta's Babu ke Tikkay to Lahore's Phajje ke Paye to
Peshawar's Takht Bahai Chappl Kebabs to Karachi's Student Biryani to
Gujranwala's BBQ, Sarak Chaap Chef become's a traveling food critic show.
Another franchise it can take on in another season is Sarak Chaap Shopper,
where different clothes and accessories from different parts of the country
are procured and compared. Sarak Chap Journalist can be yet another
franchise, this time making it a "public platform" type of setting which travels
across the country. Another way to broadcast this show is to produce all 3
franchises together and air Chef/Shopper/Journalist in a loop, emphasising
on the Sarak Chaap brand.
Youth Bulletin: Inspired by MTV News, which gives a slanted yet smart take on
contemporary issues. In effect, this will be a DSS for young adults, with web
news, music and movie ratings, fashion news, sports coverage etc. The
thematic is "the youth has spoken", the brand key is "youth empowerment"
where its "cool to know". No suits, lots of denim, "personality" reporters, guy
and gal anchoring team.
