What should CBS do about bigoted Big Brother contestants?

Every year CBS airs another impossible-to-watch season of Big Brother, where a bunch of desperate-to-be-famous types get trapped in a house together. The contestants - called house guests - are hoping to avoid being evicted each week. The last person remaining wins some money.

Highlights of all the goings-on in the house are shown during a primetime telecast. However, fans can also watch the live Internet feed to see what the house guests get up to 24/7. And a couple bigots have been exposed!

GinaMarie referred to welfare as “n**ger insurance.” How nice.

And Aaryn called gay contestant Andy a "queer." Not to be outdone, Spencer referred to Andy as “Kermit the Fag" and praised Hitler as a gifted speaker. Charming.

CBS said in a statement:  "We certainly find the statements made by several of the Houseguests on the live Internet feed to be offensive. ... At times, the Houseguests reveal prejudices and other beliefs that we do not condone."
