A guest embarrasses a TV channel and demands his dues live (video)
The British Broadcasting Corporation "BBC" - the Arabic channel - was exposed to an embarrassing and surprising situation, during its live broadcast, after the Egyptian political analyst Mahdi Afifi demanded his financial dues from the channel, which he did not receive for two years.
In the details, a presenter, during a live broadcast on the British channel “BBC Arabic”, presented the political analyst, Mahdi Afifi, from Washington to ask him for his opinion on the statements of US President Joe Biden about the Ukrainian crisis, so he surprised her with a comment outside the text on the live air, demanding that the channel pay dues Commentators who participate in its programmes.
Afifi responded to a question from the BBC presenter by saying: "President Biden found that his opinion led to a confusion of views, and this may be allowing Russia to enter Ukraine."
He added to his comment, saying: "The important issue now is that for two years, the BBC has not paid us any dues, referring to the "analysts who participate in its programmes."
Afifi was not satisfied with this, but showed on the screen a paper showing his demand to the head of news in the television, Annegard Glad, the head of news in the television, and Tamer Abdel-Wahhab, the official in the Arab department, for his dues that have not been paid for two years.
It was not from the announcer, except that she interrupted him before he finished his words, and she said to him: “Do you think this matter concerns the viewers now?”, and reconsidered her comment by saying: “I appreciate what you are saying,” concluding her episode with an apology from the viewers and the complaining analyst.
The pioneers of the communication sites circulated the video of the political analyst while he was demanding his dues, and the reactions varied between supporters of the demands and those opposed to the method of the request that confused the TV channel announcer.
