[Reality Bites]

Dear all,

Can anyone solve this mystery for me please? Here is a link to a website which is claimed to be the biggest collection of Pakistani TV channels current affairs shows. I truly like it because if I am travelling or away from home, I can replay any show at will, here is the link:

www.zemtv.com

I am sure most of PDFers would have visited this site, but this is the problem:

I have observed all along that comments posted in favor of Imran Khan / PTI get 90%-95% thumbs up and / or positive feedback. Any comment in favor of other party / person or a PTI critical comment gets insulted or abused.

I have observed another strange pattern recently, if you click "thumbs up" for a pro PTI comment sometimes a single click changes the score by 2 / 4 / 8 or even by 12 points. Whereas if you click a "Thumbs down" on a pro PTI comment, instead of count going up, it goes down. All this is very unsual.

MY Question:

Is www.zemtv.com connected to PTI? If yes, how?

I know it has a lot of PTI supporters (which is the case on most of the discussion forums anyways) but it is, at least, not officially related to PTI. I even head read someone once complaining that it has some PML-N support. It is a hearsay though.

I don't think it is. It's simply a case of many young Pakistani's who have enough money to afford the internet, even mobile internet support PTI. Our village has been a PPP village for decades, but my young cousins are now PTI supporters, despite PTI not even having a real presence in AJK. These guys only have access to mobile internet, as land lines have not reached our village.
