Reality TV

            I found the text reading on reality television interesting. One point that was brought up, then backed away from is, reality television as a form of voyeurism. I can agree how that aspect was brought up and dismissed, because in the case of voyeurism, it consists of one being filmed or photographed in a real life setting, although the one being viewed is unaware and unwilling. Do I personally like reality television? Yes! Although editing controls what is being viewed, it’s captured real time reactions. The names that are seen are reality tv are their real names, vice an actor that you will see in various shows under a different character’s name. In my opinion, reality tv will continue to grow, and enjoyed by many.
