Spanish broadcaster allegedly skips Israeli hurdler during introductions at European Athletics Championships

A Spanish national broadcast channel is in hot water following an alleged omission during its coverage of the European Athletics Championships in Birmingham, England this week.

RTVE, a news organization in Spain, was covering a hurdling event that featured athletes from all over the world lining up in their starting positions and staying loose.

As the camera panned to each individual participant, the anchors for RTVE introduced the athletes by name as well the country they represented.
