Related: About this forumTYT: Lebanese Host Cuts Off Sexist Sheik And Ends On Air Interview
"Rima Karaki, a Lebanese TV host, proved that she had no patience for rudeness when her interview with Sheik Hani Al-Sebai was cut very short.
During the interview, Al-Sebai went off-topic with the history of Christians joining Islamic groups, and when Karaki tried to refocus the discussion on present-day happenings, he became argumentative and said, I will answer as I please. Karaki explained that they had a limited time for the interview and that she wanted to give him the chance to give a complete answer, but despite her best efforts to calm him down, Al-Sebai got increasingly antagonistic, telling Karaki, 'You can decide as much as you like, but I will do whatever I want.' *
