Egyptian Channel, Maria TV is an Islamic TV that will cater to women. They have fully veiled female anchors, who are veiled from head to toe. Even their faces are covered (eyes would be visible under the face covering).
Even the female guests who would appear on the TV station would be covered from head to toe, including wearing the face covering. Very extreme.
Here's the mission of the TV station
"I want to give children the ability to see these women and say `I want to be like that'... to create a generation that wants this and wants to be like this," Abu Islam said.
I doubt children would willingly watch such a boring TV station, especially a station where human don't have any TV presence.
Abdallah, known by his nickname Abu Islam, said his goal is to show women that they do not have to reveal their beauty to the world in order to be seen.
This Abdallah doesn't seem like the brightest guy around. Did he not know that he could have easily started a broadcast radio station where he wouldn't need to go to such extreme to make his point.
Of course not. His propaganda won't really work. Female anchors on radio would just be like everyone else. And then no one would pay much attention to these women.
Pretty scary.. would you really let your kids watch this?
They forgot to put niqab on the hideous doll :D
ReplyDeleteYes. That face is soo hideous.
ReplyDeleteI find it extremely degrading that they promote a Muppet face on women rather than human face.
