SINGAPORE (Reuters) – A Singapore radio station was fined for organizing a contest in which women were asked to remove their bra as quickly as possible from under their clothes.
Singapore’s Media Development Authority said state-owned MediaCorp Radio would be fined S$15,000 ($9,800) for broadcasting “exploitative and inappropriate content” in its program “No Bra Days with the Muttons” in March.
“The two DJs had made sexually suggestive comments on how fast the bras were removed, as well as the color, design and cup size of the bras, and the size of the girls’ breasts,” the regulator said in a statement late on Monday.
The Media Development Authority said the women were also asked to pose with their bras for videos that the radio station posted on its Web site and on the video-sharing YouTube Web site.
MediaCorp officials were not immediately available to comment.
All I can do is lol !! hiak hiak hiak hahaha
It is not about being male, but the behaviour they display on air. I have since sweared off listening to P10 morning shows (or even do not listen to the radio altogether anymore) because everything was crap and there is no entertainment value. I am not too sure if the programme (remove bra) is conjured up by them or by the management. If it is by the 2 DJs, I think they should be removed altogether. If it is the management, then something has to be done overall.
Thinking about it, I think this is somewhat similar to the Sheikh Haikel case a few years back, and yet these 2 DJs are still standing. More references here.
I think it is timely that they should tone down. That is the problem when you have 2 Male DJs. They always appear somewhat desperate, as if deprived of women in their life. They deserve to be fine!
Good.
