Former MSNBC host Martin Bashir is "seriously unwell" with coronavirus complications
-
"We are sorry to say that Martin is seriously unwell with Covid-19 related complications," said a BBC spokesperson of Bashir, who currently works as BBC News' religion editor. "Everyone at the BBC is wishing him a full recovery. We’d ask that his privacy, and that of his family, is respected at this time.” The British journalist is famous for his interviews with Princess Diana and Michael Jackson. Bashir resigned from MSNBC in 2013 after getting suspended for suggesting on-air that someone should defecate in Sarah Palin's mouth.
