Protest Over Proposed Show on Prolific Rapper Oxygen television executives weren't talking Monday as negative attention grew about "All My Babies' Mamas," its proposed program featuring a musician who has fathered 11 children with ten different mothers. The Parents Television Council on Monday asked the network not to let the program on the air, calling it "grotesquely irresponsible and exploitive." The group follows a New York writer, Sabrina Lamb, who launched a petition drive against the show. Lamb said the petition, listed on change.org, has more than 20,000 signatures. Oxygen, an NBCUniversal cable network owned by Comcast, brought its programming chief before television writers on Monday to tout new shows like "Fat Girl Revenge," "Find Me My Man" and "Too Young to Marry?" The cable network aimed at young women made no mention of "All My Babies' Mamas," which was announced in a news release the day after Christmas. It was described as a one-hour special to air this spring "revealing the complicated lives of one man, his children's mamas and their army of children." Three days later, New York author Sabrina Lamb received an email from a friend with a link to the program. She said it featured Atlanta rap artist Shawty Lo, his children and their mothers. In one part of the program, the father is asked if he can name his children, which he is able to do, she said. "When I saw it, my blood curdled," said Lamb, author of "Do I Look Like an ATM? A Parent's Guide to Raising Financially Responsible Children. She said the children are forced to witness their mothers clamor for financial support, emotional attention and sexual rewards from their father, and she was concerned about the embarrassment the children would face in the name of entertainment. "If you wanted to do a documentary on how to exploit your children, that would be perfect," she said. Jason Klarman, president of Oxygen Media, declined to speak about the show on Monday through a spokeswoman, Julie Rothman. Rothman said the footage that was briefly circulated was part of a "pitch reel" hacked from the website of the production company. Such clips are used to try and get television networks to buy programs. She said there has been no talent deals - meaning it's not sure Shawty Lo will be featured. The program is "still very much in early development," she said. In a statement issued late last week, Rothman said the show "is not meant to be a stereotypical representation of everyday life for any one demographic or cross section of society. It is a look at one unique family and their complicated, intertwined life. Oxygen Media's diverse team of creative executives will continue developing the show with this point of view. The news release announcing "All My Babies' Mamas" described it as a one-time special at one point and a series at another. Rothman said it was a mistake to call it a series. Networks, however, frequently air specials and turn them into series if they do well in the ratings. Tim Winter, president of the Parents Television Council, asked people who don't like the idea of the show to let Oxygen know. "If Oxygen moves forward with the program, we will be contacting every corporate sponsor that buys advertising time on the Oxygen network to hold them accountable as well," he said.
