A well known Egyptian TV presenter picked the phone during a live show about the current political situation in his country and a non-human voice came through.

Amr Adib kept saying “hello” but the one on the other line kept barking. He then realised that the caller was a dog.

“Adib was quick in realizing the joke from some one who does not like him…so he said ‘it’s the first time I know we have viewers of this type.”

Egyptian newspapers said Adib, one of the most controversial TV presenters in the most populated Arab country, triggered anger this week when he attacked Islamists following the election of president Mohammed Morsi, an Islamist.
