I am just looking for more opinions to broaden my perspective.. so just wanted to know that which newspaper has better columnists
P.S I have plan to appear in 2017

Yes it takes more time when someone is beginner like me, but with the passage of time, it becomes easy as one has to read a lot of stuff daily which helps enhance vocabulary, and gradually one gets used to it.

Dawn: Unbiased but comprehensive and mature writing. It's up to you which piece of writhing you select to read. Editorial would be first preference then other articles. In fact, every newspaper presents different opinions on various issues.

I think if one is reading only dawn with quality and full concentration. Then the dawn is more than enough. Becaise it comprise all burning and hot topics which are necessary in due course of time. If you have extra time then read blogs of dawn or column amd editorials of tribune which seem almost in same standard like dawn does.Please correct me of O am wrong.

Nothing is unbiased here, specially DAWN.. I have been reading it since 2014 & I still disagree with its take on most of the issues

My observation: When it comes to eloquence, DAWN is matchless but its analyses are highly biased and left-leaning to which i personally don't agree. So my advice would be to read DAWN just for the sake of language; read good books first, build some knowledge base and then analyse DAWN's columns yourself; take only relevent material which substantiates your opinion otherwise you will go astray and end up having no opinion of your own
