Channel 4 to broadcast the Islamic call to prayer every morning during the holy month of Ramadan

Surely a public broadcasters remit is to cater for everyone within its remit (i.e The Public) so as a proportion of those would be religious so they have a right to programming that caters for them and the broadcaster a duty to provide it?

OcUK provides far more discussion of religion than all the public broadcasters put together, so Ch4 adding a handy alarm clock for Muslims isn't really doing their bit IMO.

In fact Jedis are significantly better catered for, there is always a repeat of Star Wars on somewhere.
 
It doesn't affect anyone negatively. Only those that misunderstand Islam. Idiots. Let them get on with it.

Non-event.

A proportion of the public are into child porn, are you suggesting the news channels should cater for them too? :eek::p;)

Just my preference, I wasn't aware that my preferences had to be inclusive and representative? :D

Clearly they don't, I was replying to the "especially Public ones" which seemed to imply that it was more than a preference and more of an opinion....:)

I won't watch it, but is has the advantage of stirring up the bigots but I still feel religion is outdated and anachronistic and see little point is promoting superstition. However I am fully aware that broadcasters are not there to pander to only my whims or we would have more than 6 episodes per Top Gear season!

Personally I think that Top Gear should be subject to statutory obligations on what is effectively the State Broadcaster. Limiting it to 6 episodes each season is simply not cricket.

In other news, the European Parliament has stripped French far right leader Marine Le Pen of her parliamentary immunity after she compared Muslims praying on the streets to the Nazi occupation of France. Food for thought.

I don't see why she should be prosecuted for having a daft opinion...I don't see what Muslims praying in a street has in common with the German Occupation of France either mind.....
 
I think its pretty funny how they done this to rustle peoples jimmies. Like has been said its 3 or 4 in the morning lol.

If they were cutting off the 3:15 at Doncaster or the bloke with 10 stone testicles then my jimmies would be rustled.
 
If they allow this - with a year, the United Kingdom will be renamed the United Islamic Republic Of Britain, every single female child will have it's genital's mutilated & Stephen Fry will be publically beheaded outside of the houses of parliament.
