Lashes for Saudi woman journalist
By Sebastian Usher
BBC News
A female journalist in Saudi Arabia has been sentenced to 60 lashes over a TV show in which a Saudi man described his extra-marital sex life.
The programme, made by Lebanese satellite network LBC, caused a huge scandal in conservative Saudi Arabia when it was shown several months ago.
The journalist is one of two female LBC employees who have been arrested.
Mazen Abdul Jawad, the Saudi man who talked about how he picked up Saudi women for sex, has already been jailed.
