CD:UK criticised for Pink t-shirt

The ITC has upheld complaints that ITV's CD:UK broadcast a Pink performance featuring an offensive t-shirt on a show aimed at children.

TV watchdogs have upheld complaints against ITV’s pop show CD:UK after they screening a performance by Pink where she wore a t-shirt bearing the words ‘you fuckin bitch’. The ITC, the commercial TV regulator, said it was irresponsible for ITV to screen the performance on a show aimed predominantly at children – even if they did so by mistake. The programme's producers say the performance was pre-recorded by the record label and provided ready to air – it seems no one at CD:UK checked it first.
