HR2 informativ (Dec 01 2003 23:31 GMT) - Durch Zufall bin ich heute Mittag bei HR2 gelandet, den einzigen Sender, den ich zu der Zeit vernünftig reinbekommen habe. Begleitet hat er mich immerhin von 12 Uhr bis 15 Uhr. Rückblickend muss ich sagen, es waren unterhaltsame und informative drei Stunden, wenn natürlich vom Programm her ganz anders als auf HR XXL oder HR3. Das ist klar. Von 12-13 Uhr war Hans Meurer, ein "Vampir-Forscher", zu Gast in der Sendung Doppel-Kopf. |

Non idonei (Dec 01 2003 23:30 GMT) - Mi pare piuttosto grave che in Italia un datore di lavoro possa tranquillamente permettersi di sottoporre obbligatoriamente i candidati al test HIV -- infischiandosene alla grande dei diritti alla privacy dei lavoratori -- senza che nessuno faccia un plissé. Tra le tante discriminazioni subite continuamente dai sieropositivi, questa non mi pare trascurabile. Sergio Lo Giudice di Arcigay ha denunciato il problema a un recente convegno alla Camera del Lavoro di Bologna. Non sarebbe il caso, però, di protestare un po' più |
