Broadcaster suspended over obscene content
CHINESE regulators suspended a broadcaster yesterday after an unaired segment of a TV game show was leaked online showing a raucous shouting match about nudity between spectators and a woman who calls her daughter the next Lady Gaga.
Jiangsu Education Television's programming was suspended because the show was deemed vulgar and not educational enough.
The decision was prompted by the game show "Bang Bang Bang," which has games of chance for cash prizes as well as entertainment segments with attractive women. A video clip of an episode that had yet to air, apparently filmed by an audience member, features Gan Lulu, an auto show model well-known in China for racy outfits. Gan's career was launched when her mother posted a nude online video of her to gain publicity.
The six-minute "Bang, Bang, Bang" clip, still available on YouTube, shows Gan, her mother and audience members shouting and swearing after one person asks whether Gan's risque images have undermined morals in China.
Gan's mother Lei Bingxia also in the audience, stands to take up the argument, using several unprintable slurs.
"Can your mom make you the sexy goddess of China?" she later shouts. "Can your mom make billions of people like you? Gan's mom can!"
"I'm the best agent in China, I'm telling you! I will not only make my daughter the world's Lady Gaga, but the world's Marilyn Monroe."
The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television ordered the show canceled on Wednesday for "amplifying ugliness." It said it had a negative influence on society.
On Thursday, it issued a second directive saying the station had to suspend all programming because it violated broadcasting rules by identifying itself as an educational channel while offering entertainment content.
