Netflix pulled an episode of “Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj” from its streaming service in Saudi Arabia after receiving a complaint from the kingdom. The removal was first reported by the Financial Times.
The episode, titled “Saudi Arabia,” centers around the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi and criticizes Saudi Arabia, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and Saudi Arabia’s war in Yemen. The Crown Prince has been implicated in the planning of Khashoggi’s murder by the Central Intelligence Agency and Turkish officials.
