CNN discovers Irony
LOS ANGELES, California (Hollywood Reporter) -- At least one Fox Broadcasting Co. affiliate has balked at airing Monday night's 90-minute special "Who's Your Daddy," which has raised the ire of adoption advocacy groups for a premise that revolves around an adopted woman trying to pick her biological father from a group of eight candidates.
WRAZ-TV (Fox 50) in Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina, has yanked "Daddy" and instead will air a documentary, "I Have Roots and Branches: Personal Reflections on Adoption," in the 8-9:30 p.m. EST block slated for "Daddy."

In response to WRAZ's decision to dump "Daddy," Fox noted that the special had been "thoroughly vetted" by the network's standards and practices department.
