Scripted RTV

As much as RTV is sold as being completely real, undited, and uniterfered with. It really isn't. Once the camera is there, people do act differently. While it might appear that they are acting as they normally would, but their enviornment has been altered, causing their actions to be altered as well. I don't think that any rtv show is completely unscripted because no one would care and the people would lose money. As sean said, it is "purportdely unscripted" which to me, means that the characters are acting and trying to make it seem as if they arent. They are being pushed along a seemingly "normal" day that is scripted. Then along with being scripted, the show is edited to get their message or add across to the audience. Even if it is a skewed view.
