I couldn't agree more with you about the whole "reality tv approach". We should all know that the media's representation of "reality" is the opposite...and potentially harmful....I truly hate to see complex problems reduced to a 30 minute program. But I've been upset for awhile.....The show about tv's so called "brats" is not as disturbing to me as the "Swans" program. The message of that little "jewel" is that if you have the right surgeries and other cosmetic enhancements, you can be loved and have a wonderful life....(neither of which are available in the current, distasteful state of unattractiveness)....That's truly a scary message for our young women to be receiving...just as scary as presenting youths with real problems as "soldiers" who will "fall in line" if they just get their bu tts kicked hard enough.....Enough is enough......Down with Reality TV!
