Egypt's veiled presenter in breakthrough TV appearance

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-19460279

"A woman presenter has appeared on Egypt's TV in Islamic headscarf for what is believed to be first time since the state channel opened in 1960.

Fatima Nabil wore a cream-coloured headscarf as she read a news bulletin.

Pretty soon they will be everywhere. And then force those that don't to do it.
