NEW YORK – The Fox network is making a reality show out of the troubled economy. An upcoming series titled, "Someone's Gotta Go," lets employees of a small business decide which one of their colleagues will be laid off.

Fox says it has no air date yet for the series, which is being developed by the company behind "Big Brother" and "Deal or No Deal." Each week, a different company lays off an employee.

Fox also wouldn't reveal the show's host, which it says is a business consultant who will offer advice to participating companies.

Who's with me in a boycott of Fox and all the affiliates?

[underpants]

1. So this business consultant is going to repeatedly give the same advice?

"Fire someone" or "reduce payroll" as they prefer to say it

Yep that is pretty much the first thing any business consultant says

[Zenlitened]

3. There are no firings or payroll reductions, silly.

Sometimes companies simply need to to some "right-sizing."

:puke: :puke: :puke:

2. Won't do any good for me to boycott, as I haven't watched FAUX Noise ever...

unless I accidentally click them on when searching for HGTV.

I'm boycotting, but I'm not making an impact by doing so.

4. Is this show supposed to generate laughter with "You're Fired!"?

[JANdad]

5. Sad part is...

Sheeple will watch it...

6. Pit worker against worker and hopefully remake the Image of Business.

Propoganda. The fear of pitchforks making them nervous????

7. Soon they will be airing a reality 'Running Man' ala Steven King and Aunuld!

8. This would be for the 23%'ers who continue to vote against their best interests.

Just shows how much Fox really hates the working people and panders to big biz.

[Deja Q]

9. And then FOX news pundits bitch, whine, and bleat about the lack of morals and ethics in America.

This means YOU, Bill O'Reilly. YOU have put up specials moaning about this, yet you seem unable or unwilling to acknowledge what seems straightforwardly obvious: Your own network is complicit in the things you gripe about.

I'm sure there's a justification...
