Dark Truths of Reality TV Controversies: Exploitation for Entertainment

Reality TV practically runs on controversy. We love to watch the big blowups, the outsized personalities, and all the drama in front of and behind the camera. We love to watch these controversies for shock value, but they also show us how serious real-world issues can become “Real World” issues. But as “scripted” as reality TV can be, it still illuminates something about human nature, and intersects with bigger topics we deal with on a day to day basis.
