Judge orders Argentine radio host to have feminists on his show

  • 24/12/2018

An Argentinean radio host infamous for his attacks on feminists has now been ordered to put women on-air by a judge.

Angel Etchecopar was charged with "disrespectful, insulting, denigrating and discriminatory" outbursts against women for his misogynistic diatribes on-air, according to Argentine daily newspaper La Nacion.

He would often refer to feminists as "feminazis" and "disgusting people".

Prosecutor Federico Vilalba Diaz told La Nacion that Mr Diaz had shown remorse for his words and convinced the female judge to drop the case against him in favour of a probationary solution.

As part of that agreement, he must host a feminist guest at least once a week for five months.

He's not allowed to interrupt his guests for 10 minutes and can't criticise them after they finish.

He's also been banned from making any further discriminatory remarks for a year.
