Citing indictments, SOU takes show about gay men off air
Southern Oregon University has stopped airing the Rogue Valley Community Television show "Wilde Life" because of the indictments of its producer and host.
The weekly show about issues facing gay men was suspended by SOU Associate Provost Paul Steinle because of the indictments, and it will stay off the air until the charges are resolved in court, he said.
Scott Clay, 55, the show's host, and Dennis Vickoren, 62, of Eagle Point, the show's producer, both have been indicted on charges relating to child pornography.
Clay was fired in August from his job with the city of Jacksonville after child pornography allegedly was found on his workplace computer. He was indicted Aug. 25 on charges of first-degree encouraging child sexual abuse and second-degree encouraging child sexual abuse, both felonies.
Vickoren was indicted Aug. 26 on 30 felony counts of encouraging child sexual abuse for allegedly disseminating, duplicating and possessing child pornography.
The show continued after the indictment, with the most airing last week.
Neither Clay nor Vickoren could be reached for comment.
