  • Dawn News was Pakistan's first 24-hour English news channel. Based in Karachi, the station is a subsidiary of Pakistan Herald Publications Limited (PHPL), Pakistan's largest English-language media group. The test transmission of the station occurred on May 25, 2007, and the channel went live on July 23, 2007. On May 15, 2010, Dawn News converted into an Urdu news channel after successful test transmission of four hours a day. The conversion is mainly due to its financial crisis and thin viewership in the country. Now Express 24/7 has replaced it as the Pakistan's only English news channel. Dawn News' Test Transmission was launched by former President of Pakistan, Pervez Musharraf. The complete launch of the channel coincided with the result of the Supreme Court case which cleared the Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, who had been suspended by General Musharraf. The channel was initially housed in Haroon House, the head-office of PHPL, but later moved to its current premises in West Wharf, Karachi. The channel has an online stream available on its web site for foreign viewing.

Den endelige lanseringen fant sted samtidig som sjef for Pakistans høyesterett, Muhammad Chaudry, som hadde blitt suspendert av Musharraf, ble frikjent i retten. Kanalen holdt tidligere til i Haroon House, PHPLs hovedkvarter, men flyttet senere til sin nåværende plassering i Vest-Wharf i Karachi.
