Egyptian television authorities have temporarily suspended eight women anchors due to their being overweight, as part of the state-owned broadcaster?s efforts to shed its sluggish image.
The decision was issued this week, giving the eight one month to go on a diet and get slim before they are allowed back on television screens, local media reported.
Some rights advocates have criticised the suspicion of the eight and many have raised eyebrows as to why only women were targeted.
It was **t immediately clear if the curbs will be applied to male television anchors too.
