Birth date controversy

[edit]

Hello,

I updated the article to reflect the birthdate in the "Early Life" section as appears in the intro paragraph, added a citation to El Cinema page for the noted birthdate. But this might be inaccurate, as she started university in 1983 (according to an interview) - which makes her 14 per her El Cinema page. Which is probably wrong.

Most sites on the web notes her birthdate as 8 November 1969, probably because that is what Wikipedia has in the infobox. I can't find any credible source to change the birthdate to 1963.

I am noting down this here to make sure we retain this information going forward. Rubberdoorpost (talk) 11:10, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

On the privately-owned CBC channel, presenter Lamis El Hadidi used another tactic to persuade citizens to vote. Directing her message to Egypt’s Coptic Christians and playing on their fear of Islamists, she reminded the country’s minority Christian community of the torching of churches under Islamist rule. Her comments provoked an outcry on social media networks from young activists who perceived her remarks as “incitement to hatred ” and “serving to fuel sedition” in an already deeply polarised country.[4] Many members of the media also took up the task of urging voters to go to the polls. For example, CBC host Lamis Hadidi exhorted Copts to remember the church arsons during the Mursi presidency and to turn out en masse.[5]

In 2014, she denounced the harsh verdict, when Al Jazeera journalists were jailed in Egypt.[6] Lamis al-Hadidi, a pro-government media personality

The systematic attacks against anchor Lamees Al-Hadidi; assassination threats made against her because of her position as part of a campaign against media.[7]

Another organized attack was launched on the media presenter Lames Al Hadedy, and she was threatened by assassination because of her political stands against the utilization of religion for political reasons[8]

In the months that followed, a handful of talk show presenters were named as part of an investigation by the state for "violating journalist ethics in order to incite sedition and chaos and threatening national peace," [9]

Since Morsi’s ouster, pro-military television hosts like Lamis El Hadidi from Egypt’s CBC channel regularly spout anti-Syrian vitriol, likening them to the Muslim Brotherhood. “She says things like, ‘I support Assad because he’s killing you and you deserve it,’”[10]
