TYT: 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-Seba’i was cut very short.

During the interview, Al-Seba’i 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-Seba’i got increasingly antagonistic, telling Karaki, 'You can decide as much as you like, but I will do whatever I want.'” *

which would have been much better coming from the two female co-anchors. Shut up and listen, guys.
