Television programming

"Man is not so religious all the time.  Even if he does all the prayers, it's only thirty minutes a day.  The rest of the time we eat, we work, we have sex, we have love.  Why would we make the station about religion, religion, religion all the time?"

-Hazem Ghorab (General Manager of Egypt 25, a channel established by members of the Muslim brotherhood, from Arab Summer by Peter Hessler, New Yorker, June 18, 2012
