Controversies

During the 2019 constitutional referendum in Egypt which would extend the presidential terms limit, CNN Arabic started a poll allowing people to vote whether they endorse or oppose the referendum. According to Amr Waked, an Egyptian actor and a political dissident, the votes in the CNN Arabic poll was going normal until 14:42 to 14:57 the poll results rapidly changed. He accused the CNN Arabic of manipulating the poll results in favour of the Egyptian president Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.[2]
