LEBANON:
Lebanese Tv host Rima Karaki blasted her guest on the show on Memri TV after he told her it was ‘beneath him to be interviewed by a woman’, according to foreign sources.
London-based Muslim scholar Hani Al Seba’I was invited on the show to discuss the increasing numbers of Christians joining ISIS but instead he made sexist remarks about the host.
“Shut up, so I can talk. I am talking so that people can understand…,” he said.
Karaki replied saying, “how can a respected sheikh like yourself tell a TV show host to shut up?” Hani responded with “it’s beneath me to be interviewed by you. You are a woman.”
Karaki took control of the show and got Hani’s transmission disconnected.
