Hosts of a chat show on a Hong Kong radio station apologized Tuesday for an Internet survey asking its listeners to vote which actress they would most like to sexually assault.
The Commercial Radio poll drew widespread criticism last week, with teachers, legislators and ordinary citizens slamming it for advocating violence against women and for corrupting youth.
"The program hosts and co-workers publicly apologize for any offence that the Internet poll 'Which female artiste would you most like to sexually assault' caused to female artistes and everyone in Hong Kong," a message posted on the radio Web site said.
The hosts also promised to be more careful in selecting the content of its shows in future.
I guess being an insensitive clod is a prerequisite to being a morning radio host in ANY COUNTRY.
Next week: Send a picture of the ugliest child in your building, and the animal they remind you of most. Winner will be put on a billboard.
So who won?
"Which actress would you NOT sexually assault for ANY amount of money?"
