] The Fox network said Tuesday it will air a special next
] month, "Who's Your Daddy?", where a daughter given up for
] adoption as an infant attempts to guess the identity of
] her birth father for a $100,000 prize.

"I find it curious that people are calling it that without having seen an episode," said Scott Hallock, one of three executive producers of the series for the Fox Television Studios. "You might get the impression from the title that it is somehow salacious or exploitive. But nothing could be further from the truth."

So, you have a woman searching for her biological father, and 8 guys trying to convince her that it's him, because if they do convince her to chose wrong, they get 100 grand. That won't be emotially torturous at all. -k]
