Nobel Prize winners want NBC to cancel new reality show

In the upcoming NBC reality show "Stars Earn Stripes," "celebs" like Nick Lachey and Todd Palin go head-to-head in military-style training challenges. NBC has said it will "pay homage to the men and women who serve." But now, nine Nobel laureates who won their prizes pushing for peace have called on the network to cancel the show, saying "preparing for war is neither amusing nor entertaining." Among the critics is South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who was awarded the prize for his work to end apartheid. [Source]
