EVICT Big Brother
In the six years that Big Brother has been on our TV screens, it has got progressively worse, with increasing sexual innuendo and voyeurism. Now it is time for it to go! In 2005, the Big Brother Uncut show screened two incidents that the Regulatory authorities found breached the classification guidelines for television. In response, Channel Ten stopped screening live footage, changed the name to Big Brother Adults Only and was required to monitor the program prior to broadcast. The Big Brother Adults Only program was TAKEN OFF AIR in June 2006. That's good news! Letting them know our views DOES HELP! In 2006, there was more controversy. An incident of alleged sexual harassment by two guys against one of the girls. It was not actually shown on TV but was streamed live on the internet. This incident was dealt with - and subsequent series have focused on games and competitions but the talk and sexual innuendo is still there. We still think the whole program needs to go! ACTION: 1. Write to Channel Ten- ask them to take the Big Brother program OFF AIR! 2. Write letters to the editor of newspapers. Click here for email addresses. |
