"It's just common sense -- if you don't want to risk being made out to look bad, then you don't sign a waiver to have your lives taped by a media group that has a reputation for outrageous programming. Sigma should have known better - it's as simple as that."
DZ,
Nice to know that someone sometimes agrees with me. I would just point out, though, that on the earlier thread I've alluded to a few times there were only two or three of us (all of whom worked or have worked in electronic media) who were originally against the concept. Most of the posters originally thought this show would be a great idea until we pointed out selective editing, sensationalism, etc. A lot of posters just couldn't believe that MTV, that icon of truth and youth, would ever tell only one side of a story -- the one that would grab the most ratings!
If the national organizations had not stepped in, I shudder to think of who MTV might be taping.
I'm not going to get into this national vs. local thing, but in this one case, Sigma did not have the benefit of a national organization to advise them.
My finger still points squarely at MTV and the probably independent producer who did the show for them.
