CBS TELLS BIG BROTHER CONTESTANTS TO SHAPE UP: Following outrage over Big Brother contestants who made racist comments, and after one player seemed to sexually harass several others, CBS is telling participants that they’d better shape up, or ship out. In a statement, CBS said: "Big Brother is a reality show about watching a group of people who have no privacy 24/7 — and capturing every unfiltered moment and conversation in their lives. At times, the houseguests reveal prejudices and exhibit behavior that we do not condone. The producers have addressed two such incidents that were seen recently on the 24/7 online feed. In both cases, those involved have been warned about their inappropriate behavior and offensive comments, as well as future consequences. These events will not be part of any future Big Brother broadcast on CBS." Big Brother airs on CBS Sundays at 8 p.m. ET, and Wednesdays and Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET.
