Islam channel breached broadcasting code

I just heard on the local news and found this link.

A Muslim religious channel in Britain is being censored after allowing presenters on air to condone marital rape and violence toward women, and for calling women who wear perfume in mosques "prostitutes."

The U.K. Daily Mail reports that in one program, the host told viewers that it was “not strange” and “not such a big problem” for a man to force his wife to have sex.

The U.K.'s T.V. watchdog, Ofcom, ruled the Islam Channel breached the broadcasting code in five different programs between May 2008 and October 2009.

In a program that aired in May 2008, Ofcom says the presenter clearly believes some physical violence is acceptable against women.

It may stop them broadcasting such vile programs, but it does nothing to solve the problem itself.
