Who is Reem Maged?

Reem Maged is an Egyptian journalist and host of the popular Baladna bel Masry talk show on Egyptian ONTV. Maged's popularity and renown have dramatically increased due to her critical coverage of political events since the 2011 Egyptian revolution, as well as her hosting of individuals on her show that are critical of the military Supreme Council of the Armed Forces, or SCAF, that has ruled Egypt since the resignation of Hosni Mubarak. She has been described as "Egypt’s best and arguably most vocal [female voice] in delivering the true happenings to the country on a nightly basis." Reem Maged has been off the air since the 2013 Egyptian coup d'état and it is not known when or if she will return as the host of Baladna bel Masry.
