To celebrate the birth of the King of the Jews Channel 4 have decided to allow the President of Iran to provide the message this year.

What a charming idea.

The rights and wrongs of allowing an idiot like him speak is one thing, but given the Jews don't recognise this king chap as their king, I think we can leave that one to one side as a point to note.

This is the same channel that brought us the "Great Climate Swindle."

Shit stirring trolls.

Channel 4's license was originally awarded on the grounds that it wouldn't simply be "another ITV", but would instead provide an outlet for radical and innovative broadcasting that the 3 mainstream channels wouldn't or couldn't. I think it's only reminding us of that with stunts like this.
