Big Donor Show

I was just watching the news and was shocked to hear about plans in The Netherlands for a new reality TV show called “Big Donor”.

What is it????

It is apparently a “Big Brother” type show in which the contestants are competing for a life-saving kidney operation.

The Dutch government are saying that it is “unethical and should be scrapped”, However the broadcasters of the show are saying that it will highlight the problems that face people who are awaiting kidney transplants.

The donor of the prize kidney is said to be a terminally ill Dutch lady who has agreed to donate a kidney.

Personally I think that it is pretty sick. What do you think???

People will do anything to grab the headlines and this does not surprise me one little bit. Both the contestants and the TV show producers have no moral fibre.
