LCD Widescreen TV is now seen as essential to the lives of many in the UK, (we refer of course to Lowest Common Denominator LCD or Trailer Trash TV)Big Brother is perhaps the finest example of this simplistic, destructive and inconsequential TV genre.
Why? would anyone want, to view the mindless antics of Saffia a mindless, single 30 year old who left her two children one of which is a 7 month old baby! in the care of their Grandmother, Why? just so she could appear on Big Brother?
A Woman who, once having been in bed with, then rejected by one of the shows hand picked Lothario's, decides she now wants to leave the house! Why? she feels she is missing her kids! This is clearly a woman clearly lacking in any kind of moral turpitude or judgement. Did she not notice the advertising building up to the show
"SIXTEEN wannabes enter the Big Brother house tonight - and they're the most sexually bizarre bunch yet"
Claude Knights, director of children's charity Kidscape, said: "Leaving a baby for an indeterminate period should not be done without good reason." What was this mindless creature thinking of leaving a child of such tender years to appear on a TV show? WHY is someone not prosecuting her for abandonment? more to the point WHY is this shit considered suitable for TV?
Big Brother is designed to titillate and give a short term "shock" rush to those, so dumbed down by the mass media, numbed by the mediocrity of our daily lives and due to the UK's total lack of any kind of leadership so goalless that they can only find enjoyment in the kind of vicarious "mindlessness" BB provides them with.
The producers of such shows Do have a duty of care not only to the contestants but to those who could suffer from the activity they are inviting the contestant to indulge in, and it is about time a line was drawn holding the producers financially and legally responsible for any damages suffered by the families of the contestants.
Yet it seems the cheap titillation, ratings and the advertising revenue such shows generate are seen by many in the UK as being far more important than any kind of moral, educational or cultural values.
Perhaps the Muslims do have a point!
