Colombian Gameshow Pulled

Caracol Television, a private Colombian network, has pulled the new game show "Nothing But the Truth." The decision was made after a woman admitted to hiring a hitman to "rub out" her husband.

The game show uses a polygraph, or lie detector, and asks contestants a series of 21 increasingly invasive questions. The contestants can win up to $50,000, despite protests from polygraph examiners and family values experts who claim that the show rewards criminal and immoral behaviour. As you can imagine, the show was wildly popular in Colombia.

Gringos, worry not. The US version is set to come out in just a few short months.
