ISPR DG Major General Athar Abbas rejected the baseless reports appearing in American media against the Pak Army and the ISI. He named New York Times reports, and declared them baseless and misleading.He said in most cases such news reports had quoted anonymous US sources, bringing the veracity of their reporting into question.He said that in 2004, US media had to apologise about some of its wrong coverage of the Iraq war. “If the newspaper continues with its vilifying campaign without any concrete evidence, it may end up expressing deep regret the way it did for Iraq coverage,” he added.
