Doha The Aljazeera Arabic News Channel has apologized to its viewers for offensive comments against Islam made by “Wafa Sultan, a Syrian- born lady” a guest of its last Tuesday programme Al Itijah Al Mu’akis (The Opposite Direction).
The live debate programme was on the reprinting of cartoons in Denmark that insult the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH). The channel had also cancelled the rerun of the programme which was to be telecast on Wednesday and Thursday.
The programme had drawn a massive reaction through telephone calls, faxes, and email from inside and outside Qatar criticizing and denouncing the comment made by the guest, Al Sharq daily has said it learnt, adding that the programme had further generated a strong outrage among the channel’s staff.
