PM. I heard that some comments about saudi during a debate were censored in the papers. Tim Sebastian went postal and threatened QF that he'd pull out of the show. It's all rumour, of course, but there's been a persistent other rumour since it happened that QF is going to set up an English-language newspaper. That would be a big joke if it happened. Instead of the Emir on the front page every day, it would be universities and vodafone.
It would be impractical anyway. They'd be shafted for a printing slot by the other papers, just like Al Arab has been, so would have no chance of reporting up-to-date world news.
