This is the only TV station in Lebanon that received an official visit from the US ambassador in Lebanon to show support for its editorial policy. "MTV’s report was written in a highly inflammatory language designed to stir up anti-gay feelings. It called the men 'shozoz', a highly derogatory term in Arabic roughly
translated to ‘perverts’ in English, and alleged the cinema was a ‘safe
haven’ for prostitution and debauchery." (Shuzuz is deviance in English).
