Demonstrators have been gathering outside Channel 10’s Sydney studios every Monday night, when the program is broadcast to a massive audience around Australia.
Last night, protesters held candles outside the studios while saying prayers and singing hymns for anyone watching the show.
But while their numbers have been slowly dwindling each week, last week’s episode reportedly attracted 44 per cent of viewers aged 18 to 49 last week and 50 per cent of those aged 16 to 39.
Last month, NEWS.com.au broke the news that Christian groups were planning a boycott of the show’s advertisers.
Outside the Channel 10 studios last night, Father Dominic Murphey told NEWS.com.au that his vigil was targeting the spiritual rather than the financial issues surrounding the show.
“We’re praying, especially for anyone who might see this program… who might be adversely affected by it,” Fr Murphey said.
