France to Curb Anti-Jewish Arab TV Broadcasts
(Reuters/Ha'aretz) France will soon pass a law to curb anti-Semitic television broadcasts coming from the Middle East and fine satellite operators who distribute anti-Jewish programs, Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin said on Saturday. He said the law would force satellite operators to inform Paris which stations they carried and threaten them with fines if they transmitted provocative broadcasts. Satellite television is widely watched in the poor suburbs around French cities where most recent anti-Semitic attacks have occurred.
