According to the Times the Â鶹Éç has decided that religious symbols must not distract the viewers.
Are they referring to viewers who are not distracted by religious symbols, or religious symbols that no none regards as religious symbols?
My main distraction is the newsreaders. Some of them should be replaced by plainer, more ordinary newsreaders. What is the Â鶹Éç to decide about that?
