Radio Station Offers Contest To Win A Wife

A radio station in New Zealand is taking some heat for its latest promotion. According to the "Metro," The Rock FM is currently running a contest that will give one man the chance to pick his wife. People can apply at the station's website, with one contestant receiving a 12-night stay in the Ukraine where he will get to select his bride. The Rock's program director, Brad King, defended the contest saying it's all in good fun. He remarks, quote, "At the end of the day, it's up to both people if they decided to get married and return to New Zealand. We're not actually marrying anyone or bringing women back to New Zealand."
