  1. What's new? Reality noticed in "Reality" TV? on Technology's Legacy: the 'Loser Edit' Awaits Us All · · Score: 1
    As noted by others earlier, the selective nature of building a case for or against something is rarely practiced in a truly objective fashion. Here, the fact that this is done in so-called "reality TV" is presented as news, despite the provincial nature observation's scope.

    This has essentially always been done by people trying to advocate a particular viewpoint. Examples abound, in the courtroom, political and social arena, religions, companies and sciences. Virtually all human endeavors are subject to this type of bias.

    So someone notices that this particular evil protrudes into "reality TV". It might be one of the most 'real' aspects there.

    PS: Jeff Probst was the kid around on the other side of the block where I was raised. As of the time of his "reality TV" fame, I don''t recognize him. While I wish him well, I have never taken the time to watch his show and doubt that I ever will.
