History
At its inception, the news channel introduced a comprehensive fleet of DSNG vans for live coverage across the country, reflecting the parent company's strategy for the Daily Express, which prioritized regional news through local editions.[1] While initially successful, attracting viewers seeking local and regional news and ranking as the second most-watched news channel in Pakistan, this advantage gradually declined as other channels also started providing extensive live local news coverage.[1]
The launch of Express News also coincided with a dispute between Jang Group and the then-serving president, Pervez Musharraf. Geo News underwent a temporary shutdown and had its main talk shows banned.[1] Express News utilized this circumstance to expand its viewership, focusing on immediate and location-specific news coverage.[1]
Editorial stance
The channel maintains a balanced, market-friendly editorial approach and integrates entertainment into its current affairs coverage.[1] It displays a conservative socio-political leaning and a supportive attitude towards security and intelligence agencies.[1] However, these elements occasionally lead to significant self-censorship, directed by Sultan Ali Lakhani, aiming to maintain favorable relations with influential bodies and religious establishments.[1]
