Why not promote the Pakistani narrative on the same platforms instead? I think the Pakistani media needs to become more professional - do we have answers to basic questions like, "did the PTM have the relevant permissions to hold a protest? Did they abide by the rules and restrictions imposed while protesting?
The media (on any protest) just jumps on the police (and I agree that they have a history of acting harshly without provocation), but in many cases the protesters themselves can't follow the rules and laws in place while protesting. Highlight both sides of the issue.
First of all, most of our media is mouth piece of foreign media, instead of countering they actually promote the narrative, write editorial and do talk shows based on their stories. We have army of lagata journalists who do propaganda for people who fill their pockets. So, expecting them they will counter propaganda is living in fools paradise. But we should bring stong iability laws to stop them from fake news, deliberate misreporting and rumor mongering. Foreign media should also register itself in Pakistan and follow the laws if they want their media to be accessible in Pakistan. As far as our social media is concerned, Our population is emotional and fool, instead of countering they become victim. Their exposure need to be curtailed until they become mature and sensible.
