CAIRO - Egypt’s first veiled newsreader on state television has drawn support from many viewers for ending an unwritten rule under ousted Hosni Mubarak that kept covered women out of the top job, although some fretted it could herald social restrictions.
Fatma Nabil appeared on television on Sunday evening wearing make-up, a smart black jacket and a beige “hijab” or veil covering her hair, the same kind of covering most women wear in Egypt but never seen on a news anchor on state TV.
