Wellington Wells Fri, 28 Jul 2006 12:36:04 +0000 http://www.theinternetpatrol.com/?p=1382#comment-8048 Aunty, I agree with your comments on the "junkyard dogs" "Fear Factor" show. I have a female pit bull in our house and she's an absolute sweetheart, getting all the petting and attention a dog could want and responding to it with love and loyalty. As for the "Fear Factor" show itself, I am not a fan, I do not watch it and I'm waiting to hear that, in spite of "safety precautions" they have finally succeeded in killing a contestant, and it will happen sooner or later as their desire to push the edge in search of ratings leads to ever more outrageous and dangerous stunts. No matter what the producers of "Fear Factor" may think Murphy's Law still rules the Universe, and one of these days the old boy is going to wake up, take a shot of Tullamore Dew and reach out and touch them. JWW Aunty,

As stated in the article, they believe any publicity is good publicity. If you want to stop this kind of show, find out who the advertisers are that support it. Contact them and express outrage. Let them know that you will email and/or call everyone that you know and make sure that their company and their brand name will be associated with hype, innuendo and animal cruelty. Notify "pet friendly" companies (dog/cat food manufacturers, etc.) that they should reconsider advertising ANY show on NBC as long as NBC insists on airing shows like this.
