“People may live or die on the result of a game show”

Filed under: Medical Ethics — shelray @ 11:36 pm

From the creators of the reality series Big Brother is a controversial show called The Big Donor Show, where a 37 year old woman gets to choose which of three “contestants” will receive her kidney. Viewers will also be able to send in their advice by text message during the 80-minute show. Who knows, maybe they have some swell consolation prizes to give away as well.

Update: It seems it was a kind of publicity stunt to raise awareness for the need for organs. Thanks Monica.
