August 5, 2008
Saudi Arabia’s MBC TV began its Sunday night news edition not with Syrian President Bashar Assad’s trip to Iran, nor with Palestinian infighting in Gaza - but with an outraged report on an Israeli TV commercial.
The advertisement shows wealthy Arab oil barons enraged that a Nissan car is so fuel efficient.
MBC proceeded to interview a Saudi representative, who was asked why he thought Israel would broadcast the commercial. He warned of a boycott of Nissan by Persian Gulf states, and demanded the company apologize.
