The Fox Exec is missing the obvious. No one really cares about the madcap antics of "Joe Billionaire" or "Win a Date with a Fat Slob" (sad really, since I fall into that category). Even televisionwithoutpity.com closed their viewer forums and halted weekly recaps of many programs due to lack of interest. This should tell the networks something.
Reality television is just the latest wave of trash that networks have been churning out for years. Does anyone remember when television was innundated with dreadful sitcoms? My father complained about that twenty years ago.
The decline in ratings is nothing more than a reflection of viewer dissatisfaction.
I pay the garbage man to haul away my refuse, then I pay the cable company big bucks to have them pipe more garbage back into my home. This thread has inspired me to kill my television.

Since NAFTA has been such a smashing success, the government is looking for new places to send American jobs. A moon of Jupiter seems like a good place to start: not too far from home, no organized labor, no pesky Judeo-Christian holidays to hamper production.
Outsourcing at its finest!
Wow!!! That is quite a plan. Surely it has to work. I think we might be in the midst of one of the greatest cultural awakenings of all time!
Why don't we put them on other instrumentalities of crime, such as knives, cars, baseball bats,and guns (i forgot...people kill people, not guns...so label all of the people instead). We can make these warning labeled people register to buy panty-hose and ski masks (wait...some towns have already outlawed those).
As we all know, warning lables have rid our society of smoking, drunken driving, and climbing up the wrong side of ladders. We should encourage our lawmakers to keep up the good work.
As for the involvement of an organization with deep pockets, I am neither shocked nor surprised. In fact, my faith in the American Way would have been destroyed if business interests weren't somehow involved in the drafting of legislation.
