It's your time, pranks ✍️ Professor Awad Ibrahim Awad
What is the problem if the TV director orders a host, whether female or male, to follow the acceptable dress code of the channel that is supposed to be the leading national channel in the state? What would be the problem if the chief broadcaster or program director asked one of his commentators to adhere to appropriate phrases in the speech without using anything that could inflame tribal, regional or ethnic tensions? Don't people of this generation know that there are red lines in any television, radio station or channel? It does not have to be a national or official channel affiliated with a state or government, or even with a family, party, group or even an individual. All the channels in the world have their own controls, and even their sanctity, their inviolability, as well as regulations and laws that do not allow anyone to deviate from them. I remember very well that one day when people were people and the homeland was a homeland and morality was morality, I entered one day through the inner door to receive the radio and I was surprised at that time by the director, the late Professor Muhammad Khojali Salihin. , may God have mercy on him, reprimanding one of the young girls and expelling her from the entrance to the reception and telling her: Go home and do not enter this radio station if you do not respect this place. If I see you again in such an outfit, you will not enter this institution until the Day of Judgment. Amidst the joy of those present, myself included, and their deep respect for the position of Director Salihin, as well as the extreme sorrow and horrible embarrassment that befell this young girl, she was forced to return 'where she came, tears filling her eyes. I didn't see her on the radio until several days later, and she was extremely modest and disciplined. She did not go to the police station, nor did she seek help from the Ajaweed, Zayd, or the slaves among her brothers, friends, or clan knights. The affair took place with all the peace and calm that no human being has felt other than those who witnessed that moment, including his reprimands and advice to establish values and morals. I also remember that when I joined television as a news reader and program presenter, and it was early in my television days, I came one day to read news commentaries , and the late engineer Hassan Ahmed Abdel Rahman, the distinguished director of information, Abu Al-Hassan Al-Shazly, was there with him. When they saw me enter the studio, they both got angry and said, “What are you wearing?” » I was extremely annoyed by their strong disapproval of the shirt I was wearing, which was white and with black stripes. The director told me verbatim: “Take off this shirt immediately if you want to read something on the air. » I was surprised by his speech because I didn't know the reason at the time, but rather I thought that I was going to get everyone's satisfaction and approval for my new shirt that I had bought only two days ago thanks to my new cooperation with television. The director and Abu Al-Hassan Al-Shazly convinced me that this color is not suitable for informational materials using chroma key technology. Since I had no solution or possibility to go home and change this shirt, engineer Hassan called my colleague Muhammad Al-Baili, one of the television employees, and said to him: Replace your shirt and wear his shirt. In the blink of an eye, I was wearing my co-worker Billy's shirt and he was wearing my shirt, and I walked into the studio and read the news commentary. I didn't complain or denounce it because it was for the benefit of the work. By analogy, the television director came with a number of (kraft) jackets and ties for the use of anyone showing up in an outfit that is not appropriate for appearing on screen, whether because of the color, design of the clothes or any other reason. This sounds like what TV director Al-Bazai criticized, and he is right in everything he said. Another example came from our colleague, Professor Yusriya Muhammad Al-Hassan, when she was the chief news anchor and the Islamic trend was announced in Sudan. She gathered all the presenters and discussed the issue with them and asked them to wear a modest uniform that befits the situation. scene trend. None of his colleagues failed to respond to this request, leading people to label the Sudanese channel as a pure channel. The issue remained that way until the contract was broken, presumption mixed in with the wicked, and the issue of modesty came close to backwardness in the eyes of some. Girls who continue to cover their heads have become vulnerable to accusations of being reactionary or perhaps even terrorism. Indeed, it's your time, pranks, so have fun.
