In further evidence that the “Arab Spring” is just a “Festival of Misogyny,” yet another woman journalist, this one Egyptian, was attacked in a Tahrir Square demonstration in Cairo on Friday. From RIA Novosti:
The journalist was interviewing participants in Friday’s rally when a quarrel broke out between them, media reports said, quoting the head of the Cairo security department.
The attackers had torn the journalist’s clothes to pieces before she managed to call police, the reports said. A police officer who arrived at the site pulled the journalist, who was about to lose her consciousness, out of the crowd and called her a taxi, but he was then attacked himself by the demonstrators, who stole his pistol and radio set.
Sound familiar? Many will remember the fate of Lara Logan last February.
