With rise in fakenews/data manipulation its only human 2 make mistakes. @TheEconomist's Espresso publication mistakenly stated Pak's economy is contracting. A recession/contraction means negative growth in an economy’s output & is very different from a slowing *growth* rate & 1/9 
However I reached out to The Economist & they were professional enough to admit their mistake & issue a correction. Funnily an ex-Fin.Minister & some journalists have been pushing the contraction/shrink narrative in nominal $ terms even tho PK’s real GDP is expected to grow. 2/9
You see being a leading agenda-setting newspaper globally, The Economist could have ignored me (a nobody) but still chose to reply & correct itself because truth must be upheld. Misrepresentation of facts is plain dishonest, especially if it misleads & scares the avg. reader 3/9
