Jade Seah admits to saying the F word
Some of you wondered if it was Jade Seah or someone else who uttered "fark" on Channel 5 during the Olympics broadcast. If you missed it, watch the video (the extended version) here. Well, Mediacorp has just admitted that it was indeed Jade Seah and she will not be replaced. From Asiaone:
In an e-mail reply to my paper, Mr Kenneth Liang, executive vice-president (TV Programming & Production, Channel 5), MediaCorp TV, said: 'MediaCorp Channel 5 has investigated and confirms that there was an unintentional utterance by the presenter off-camera.'
He explained that there was a delay in switching off Seah's microphone after she had delivered her lines, and it caught her reaction 'to a fluff she had made in pronouncing an athlete's name'.
Mr Liang said: 'We deeply regret the unintentional leakage of the off-air expletive. Measures have been put in place to prevent such occurrences from happening in the future.'

Like what? ???
Every celebrity has their pros and cons, fans and haters. Bringing her down for something she did not do is like firing her for her haters and something she didn't do wrong.
Yup, let it past.
If she does that again in future, then let it past again.
Like that she will never learn from the lesson. That will be a very bad example to kids.
so the thing is whether she said it publicly or not...well...nowadays, even a kindergarten kid knows that word.
but i do agree that she might have a "close friend" at the top...
If she does that again in future, then let it past again.

In baseball there are 3 strikes before you are out, in soccer there is a yellow card before the red and Jade"s expletive was not meant to be on air...in a way the fault should be shared between her and the technician...so its a yellow card offense...deserves a warning, then let it past, thats all...what more punishment you want for her?? what kind of draconian society you wanna promote to your kids???, one small mistake you asking for blood??
And Pls lah, what bad example?? you mean your kids hear the word fuck will go out fucking, drinking and smoke marijuana???...please spare me your ancient tortoise logic...
and i guarantee you, by the time your kid gets into primary school he/she would have heard the word fuck countless times. For all you know, your kids may stumble upon this site and read the word "fuck" here!!...fuck fuck fuck!!!!

The future for Jade Seah however,
is uncertain.
That's what you get when you're in Singapore.
Enough is said.

Someone even went on to say the handling of this issue is a bad example for our kids. Look, if *your* kids is capable of picking up something bad from this whole mediocre bullshit, perhaps you should think about not reproducing at all.
It sure feels great holding that pink IC, doesn't it?
*smirks*
