was peeking into one of the mucks this morning, and heard some moron going on about how Fox was 'discrimiating against furries!'...because they decided not to show this.

Fox, the US network whose sexploitation shows have included Temptation Island, Fastlane, Skin and Melrose Place, has drawn the line at a wildlife documentary featuring koalas and kangaroos in flagrante delicto.

Wild Sex, a documentary submitted by the National Geographic Society, has been deemed unsuitable, reports The Washington Post.

"As you know, this show is scheduled for family fare and, as such, we want to make sure that we do not sensationalise or show explicit sexual activity among our four-legged primates," Cheryl McDowell, Fox's director of broadcast standards and practices, informed Michael Rosenfeld, National Geographic's senior executive producer, in a letter.

"As you can imagine, 'mounting' or graphically sexual movements would be problematic."



I give it a day before there is a letter writing camaign on aff to get them to show it. :roll:

Let's hope it's as successful as the time Al Bundy tried to get his favorite program, "Psycho Dad" back on the air.

How DARE they not show animals having sex on TV! I really would like to know how those animals do it! I've always wondered how they reproduced and now I don't get to find out! Shame on you, FOX Television! Shame on you!

Utterly fucking moronic.

One would think that not only was there no discrimination involved, but that whoever thought up this program had no concept of "furries".








...unless they'd previously been fired from working at Disney.

The truth of the matter is: Fox wants it for their true target demigraphic. Science and nature? Please, this is Fox.

Let's just say this makes me believe even more that furry is only a mere tool to justify sexual attraction towards animals.
