Fox affiliate drops Temptation Island
|
A FOX television affiliate in North Carolina has decided to drop the network's new “reality" series Temptation Island after learning that one of the couples being enticed to break up on the show has a child, Fox officials said on Friday.
The decision by Raleigh, NC-based WRAZ-TV and its parent company, Capitol Communications, marks the sharpest rebuke so far of a programme lambasted by media critics as a televised orchestration of infidelity for the sake of ratings.
“WRAZ will not support a programme that could potentially break up the parents of a young child," Tommy Schenck, the general manager of WRAZ, said in a statement issued by the station.
The show tests the commitment of four unmarried couples by placing them on a Caribbean island resort where they venture off on arranged dates with attractive, scantily clad singles.(SD-Agencies)
