Heated Argument Explodes into Insane Brawl on Live TV

Fight erupts on air as journalists argue over Syria during live talk show
Wednesday, 7 May 2014. Video: Pundits on Jordanian TV fight over Syria, wreck set.
(Al Arabyia) An on-air fight blew up on Tuesday between two journalists on a Jordanian talk show when the speakers butted heads over the Syrian crisis.
In profound disagreement, the speakers broke apart the studio's table they had been seated in an attempt to fight each other.
The program "Bayn Etijihayn" (Between two Ways) aired on the Jordanian TV channel 7 Stars and hosted Shaker al-Jawhary, head of the Electronic Media Association in Jordan, and Mohammad Sharif al-Jaiousy, the editor in chief of news website al-Mustaqbal al-Arabi.
Al-Jawhary attacked Jaiousy for his support of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
The fight forced the host to abruptly end the program.

(WashintonPost) A debate on media freedom in Syria between two journalists on a Jordanian television network grew heated Wednesday, developing into a set-wrecking tug-of-war.

The fight erupted on the "Bayn Etijihayn" (Between Two Ways) show between Shaer Al-Johari, head of the Electronic Media Association in Jordan, and Mohammed Al-Jayousi, editor-in-chief of the news Web site al-Mustaqbal al-Arabi.

The heated conversation turned physical when Al-Jayousi accused Al-Johari of being a "deviant" who supports the Syrian revolution. Al-Johari responded by accusing Al-Jayousi of supporting the Syrian regime in exchange for money.

This prompted the two men to start shoving the studio table toward one another, eventually flipping it over. The clip is not to be missed. The host then ended the program abruptly. ​

This is not the first time a debate has created a stir on Jordanian TV. In 2012, a member of parliament not only threw his shoe at an activist on air, but then pointed a gun at him. No shots were fired.
