Sharon Osbourne in reality show battle with NBC
LOS ANGELES (AP) — NBC defended itself Monday against Sharon Osbourne's claim the network discriminated against her afflicted son in casting a new reality show.
The "America's Got Talent" judge told The New York Post that she's quitting the show because NBC fired her son, Jack Osbourne, by email two days before he was to co-star on the reality show "Stars Earn Stripes."
Jack Osbourne, 26, was diagnosed recently with multiple sclerosis.
