Short-lived boycott

Short-lived boycott

A gossip item on the  South Asia Tribune website says that a senior Pakistani journalist in Washington DC was told by a Pakistan Embassy diplomat to "get lost". He rallied other colleagues and they decided to  boycott the Embassy and the new ambassador.But the latter took the advice of his predecessor (presumably Maleeha Lodi) and invited the offended journalist alone to lunch. He was duly mollified and went back to covering the embassy without informing his colleagues who were still in boycott mode.
