The private German TV station RTL 2, usually providing mass
entertainment, announces the times of sunrise and sunset during the
month of Ramadan. Hosting shows like Big Brother and small-scale
Hollywood movies, the station’s slogan is “It’s fun”. Unexpectedly, the
marketing directors have now decided to “send out a signal” for
integration and to mark the fasting periods. The unprecedented move was
welcomed by the Central Council of Muslims.
