The Big Brother host recently told EW, "well, we've never shied away from addressing any racial issue that comes out. We air it, and then when the person ends up leaving the house, they get questioned on it. And for better or for worse, that person gets judged and tried on the internet. And the hope is that people will own it, learn from it, and move on from it. And everyone can move on from it. If someone truly changes and apologizes, who are any of us to judge?" But Chen Moonves is wrong, according to Reality Blurred's Andy Dehnart. "Saying they have 'never shied away' is complete bullsh*t," says Dehnart. "Despite what she says in those first two sentences, Big Brother and CBS have spent most of the show’s life doing exactly the opposite. There have been decades of racist, homophobic, sexist language and behavior from Big Brother cast members that the show not only ignored, but edited out, creating fictional versions of the people who said them, and protecting the image of the producers’ darlings."
