RTV being "scripted"

The idea that the incorporation of a camera to film "reality television" creates an unrealistic script is very relative to this discussion... For any time someone is knowingly being recorded either by video, audio, or even just by text there is an indirect effect on what that person will say and how they will act. So, the addition of a camera into the mix of reality television consequentially creates a scenario that is "real" but is not necessarily natural. In the show "Hard Knocks," a television show about the New York Jets football organization, there are plenty of instances where the camera affects natural scenarios; where some players would usually be more focused or inversely lackadaisical during practice, the players' actions might change entirely with the incentive to be filmed and put on television.
