Fox corporate ethics under question

Fox's 'Our Little Genius' scandal - THE WEEK

In what some are calling a throwback to the quiz show scandals of the 1950s — when producers slipped answers to favored contestants — the Federal Communications Commission has launched an investigation into a Fox show called "Our Little Genius." Fox yanked the highly promoted show a week before its scheduled January premiere after the producer said contestants, ages 6 to 12, may have been improperly coached. The father of a child recruited as a contestant had made a similar complaint to the FCC in December. Does this cast doubt on Fox's corporate ethics?

Oh. Shucks. You guys are questioning Fox's ethics. Again. I never saw that coming. I never believed you would find some way to attack Fox today. Seriously. I am totally blindsided by this event.

Surely, this world will end with such a great surprise.

Per the New York Times' characterization of the letter, "a member of the program’s production staff reviewed with the contestant and his parents a list of potential topics and gave specific answers to at least four questions that the child either did not know or about which he was unsure."

It's like Joseph McCarthy himself whining about this.

Last week Fox's Family Guy targets Sarah Palin and this week they're embroiled in and FCC ethics investigation.

It's a vast right wing conspiracy.

so then you're saying its not all fox corporation....you're saying the OP lied...

is that right?

What an utterly absurd and biased article.

A throwback to the quiz show scandals of the 1950s? Shows that actually aired after some contestants were given answers, contestants who won money because of the cheating, vs. a show that never aired because Fox yanked it upon learning of the impropriety?

Cast doubt on Fox's corporate ethics? No, on the contrary it shows Fox's corporate ethics are standing tall.

A complete bullshit article but par for the OPs course.
