MTV and Sororities

[SIGMA_INSIDER]

If you look closely, most of the quotes in the "Sorority Life" promo had words chopped off or were taken completely out of context. It's a question of the girls just saying "parties" in a list of answers to a totally different question and the editors inserting that one word or phrase whereever they please. For example, the quote "just an excuse to party" .... with the real quote being, "it's not just an excuse to party". As shown, Mtv, like all networks, has an agenda to get people to watch this show, and they've done it through misrepresentation. The show was pitched to the sorority as a documentary, but i'm afraid the pressure to compete with the sex, alcohol and nudity on the real world might cause a manipulation of truth. Hopefully all of you know that similar to the Real World, the show has storylines which can have little to do with what actually took place. I'll admit that I saw some crazy stuff go on in the house, which I will not defend, but I also saw ten times as much good. The only thing that we can hope for is that the producers of the show will follow through on their promises and not misrepresent SAEPi and all sororities in a bad light to further their own causes. If portrayed truthfully, this will be a great show which will have positive effects on all sororities.
