"Reality" TV Editing

My personal input on the matter has changed very drastically since the day I met a nice gentleman that is a TV and film editor. He worked for a few years as an editor on a couple of America's very popular reality shows and had many stories about how he and his crew changed the outcome of a real situation just for the extra ratings and interest of the scene... Even though reality television is fun to watch, we have to just take it with a grain of salt for it's really not real...but I'm sure you already knew that... :p

Here is a great piece by England's Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe on Reality TV Editing
