I shared this on the show this morning.
NEW YORK (AP) - The Fox network is making a reality show out ofthe troubled economy. An upcoming series titled, "Someone's Gotta Go," lets employees of a small business decide which one of their colleagueswill be laid off. Fox says it has no air date yet for the series, which is beingdeveloped by the company behind "Big Brother" and "Deal or No Deal." Each week, a different company lays off an employee. Fox also wouldn't reveal the show's host, which it says is a business consultant who will offer advice to participating companies. (Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)
This is like selling tickets to a train wreck.
Well, isn't that the point of the media and show biz? Let's make money off the suffering of others! And, we Americans actually watch and listen to this stuff. Some people actually believe it. It's a sad, sad world.
