Anyone here heard of The Jeremy Kyle Show? That pile of filth has a long history of exploiting the poor and sick to make a profit (both here during its brief run and in the U.K. since 2005), and the vile audience is no better. It’s mainstream bullying in the form of a “talk show.”
Yesterday, a guest diagnosed with depression committed suicide four days after the recording of an episode revealing him fail a lie detector test. In response, the show’s been suspended and pulled all episodes (including this one, which hasn’t aired yet). The fact that it took a man taking his own life to pull this filth is downright infuriating. I don’t care how popular it is or was. It’s exploitative and should’ve been pulled LONG AGO!
Heartbreaking. Prayers to the man’s family.

@Cwanky I’ve only seen the American version of Jeremy Kyle, and it’s garbage. But given its awful history in the U.K., yeah, it might be worse than JS and Maury.

These days, it seems anything goes in the name of "entertainment" – it's not even the first time something like this has happened. Hopefully this will be the last time!
