Get the Virtual Reality mug.reality-distortion field n. An expression used to describe the persuasive ability of managers like Steve Jobs (the term originated at Apple Computer in the 1980's to describe his peculiar charisma). Those close to these managers become passionately committed to possibly insane projects, without regard to the practicality of their implementation or competitive forces in the marketpace.
"A reality distortion field. In Steve's presence, reality is malleable. He can convince anyone of practically anything. It wears off when he's not around, but it makes it hard to have realistic schedules."

The most retarded idea ever made. It wouldn't be so bad if every single reality show wasn't as scripted as watching a sitcom. The real world is not REAL. Why do you think in EVERY season the black dude always goes crazy and doesn't get along with the white people. Because he's paid to and thats what the script says. Reality tv is as real as Santa Claus. MTV specifically seems to like to air shows with stupid teenagers trying to get a date by going out with thier mom or trying to not get "next-ed" but their stupid shows have teenagers in it that are not convincing at all and have way too many coincidences for it to ever be real. People who actually like that shit are retarded 30 year olds that live in their parents basement still crying about the fact that they had no friends in highschool so they cut themselves at night and listen to emo music.
Reality TV wouldn't be so bad if it was actually real and not all writen on a script in every single fucking show ever made.

Get the reality mug.Well this is a type of television programming favoured by commerical TV stations who rely on generating revenue by advertising. These types of shows appeal to the lowest common denominator which means they dont offer a refined taste or opinion and so by default doesn't turn people off because its not to their particular taste. It also plays on the idea of voyeurism. This in theory means the show attracts a large broad range of viewers as possible which will in turn drive up advertising slot costs and make more money. This is often supplemented by a phone vote feature which generates more money.
In the UK, where the explosion of Digital Terrestrial Television has now given most of the public at least 30 channels to choose from, the big 5 commercial terrestrial channels have employed reality TV as a tactic to maintain large audiences. Most guilty of this is 'itv', nicknamed chavtv whos last two attempts at reality TV were a little too far fetched (celebrity wrestling and celebrity love island) and concequently flopped.
My hope is that this represents a turn in the tide of endless banal reality TV and that the enormous amount of money made off it will be invested into quality TV programming but I think thats unlikely.
