‘Fear Factor’ goat meat gimmick fails to impress

THE broadcaster of Fear Factor Malaysia has denied criticism that the programme was insensitive when its final challenge required contestants to eat a goat carcass, reported Berita Harian.

The challenge in last Sunday’s episode, named Parit Bangkai Kambing (Goat Carcass Drain), was said to have made some viewers uneasy as most of the contestants were Muslims.
