'Reality' TV


Apparently it isn't real.  If it was, they wouldn't need writers, would they?






LOS ANGELES (AP)--Hollywood writers have sued Fox Broadcasting, a unit of News Corp. (NWS), and the producer of such reality shows as "Joe Millionaire," charging the companies with violating California's labor laws covering payment of wages, overtime and meal breaks.


The lawsuit, filed Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court, is the second filed with assistance from the Writers Guild of America, West, which is trying to pressure producers to agree to an industry-wide contract with those who " write" the supposedly unscripted shows.

Reality TV is clearly not real.  Not nearly enough ugly people on reality TV, where in reality it is, in fact, quite common.


<insert any number of quips here regarding ugly people, people you don't like, people you do like, or the mother of someone whom you may or may not like.  The latter is reserved for those with an exceptionally good sense of humor, copious amounts of patience, or who you can outrun.>

Heh.  There is no place for ugly people here.  We're all extraordinarily good looking...


...oh yes...
