Channel 4 bosses are blasted for 'sanitising' extremist views of star

Channel 4 is facing criticism for allegedly 'sanitising' the extremist views of a woman accused of anti-Semitism and homophobia in a show about immigration. Former The Apprentice candidate Bushra Shaikh appears in reality show Go Back To Where You Come From, but critics argue that the channel did not show her more extreme side, which can be seen through her social media accounts. Shaikh has made controversial statements on social media, including calling for Jews to be expelled from Israel and comparing homosexuality to paedophilia. Channel 4 defended the show, stating that all strong views expressed by contributors are challenged within the programme.
