Asked specifically about the issue of a Muslim newsreader wearing a veil, he said: "The key is, if it does not hamper our primary obligation to deliver the news and information to our viewers and listeners then we would be respectful of that.
But then Fiona Bruce can't wear her small cross, of course. Might offend someone.

Why don't theyjust please Pepe and me and have all the newsreaders look like Jordan and read the news in the raw?

The solution is to discriminate against people of all superstitions. The christians just got first dibs.

Mr roT said...

Define superstition.
