US EditionAdvertisers ditch Channel 4’s Bonnie Blue porn documentary
UNITED KINGDOM, AUG 3 – Major brands including Visa and Smirnoff withdrew ads from Channel 4's documentary due to its explicit content, amid concerns over its impact on teenage viewers, officials said.
- Channel 4's broadcaster faced demands from Visa, Cawston Press, and Smirnoff to remove their ads from the Bonnie Blue documentary, with brands requesting removal of their ads.
- Amid criticism of its explicit content, the Bonnie Blue documentary featured footage of her recording with two industry participants, prompting brands to refuse ads during the programme.
- Channel 4 defended its documentary, asserting it was 'compliant with the Ofcom broadcasting code', after Bonnie Blue claims she slept with 1,057 men in 12 hours.
- Ofcom is assessing complaints against its rules before deciding on a formal investigation, while Diageo and Cawston Press continue advertising on other Channel 4 content.
- Dame Rachel de Souza said the documentary threatened efforts to protect teenagers from online pornography, and plans are in place to amend the Crime and Policing Bill later this year.
