After receiving some public outrage which may have resulted in TV3 suspending the Delay Show on the network, Excellencia Ghana Limited, producers of the Delay celebrity talk show, has issued a press statement to address what it calls misleading media reports that Wanlov Da Kobolor showed his naked sex organ on television when he appeared as a guest on the Delay show that was aired on TV3 last Saturday March 10. The statement signed by Delores Frimpong Manso, said that Excellencia Ghana Limited would want to put on record that though Wanlov truly showed his nakedness during the recording of the Delay show, the video tape that was submitted to TV3 for airing was censored with the nakedness of the musician completely blurred.Delay is a pre-recorded production and TV3 would not have aired the show with the musician’s nakedness not censored and it is regrettable that media reports on the issue have sought to create a false impression that Delay and TV3 had showed the nakedness of a musician on television. “We call on our colleagues in the media to be truthful in their reportage as the wrong impression being created by the misleading reports is putting the show and TV station in bad light. The leaked video making rounds on some blogs and websites is not what was shown on TV3 and we very strongly want to put this on record. We thank the numerous fans that have supported us for the last three years since the Delay show started airing and we promise to continue to make the show the best celebrity talk show on TV.” Meanwhile, the CEO TV3, Santokh Singh Ram Singh, has issued a press statement suspending the show. According to him, although TV3 showed an edited programme on Saturday March 10, it regrettably did not conform to the station’s content policies and procedures. “I want to apologize to all our viewers and assure them that it will not happen again. Even though it was edited what came out still does not conform to our norms. We are taking the issue very seriously and that is why we conducting the investigation”, he said. The CEO’s statement also said that TV3 will like to make clear the following: • Production of delay is an independent production and not produced by TV3 or filmed in our studios. • The producers buy airtime from TV3. • The program’s version shown on TV3 that Saturday, March 10, 2012 was edited to conceal the indecent exposure. • We are taking this issue very seriously and have suspended the program with immediate effect. • TV3 Network wishes to assure its cherished viewers of our commitment to deliver high quality programming.  ]]>
