Have reality TV ethics hit a new low?
Filed under: @ 12:07 am

and I’m not talking about Jersey Shore. NYTimes.com has a great article about how the upcoming show “Our Little Genius” may traumatize its contestants, who are young children!

This show seems like it could easily traumatize a kid who gets a wrong answer and loses several hundred thousand dollars for his family! Is it time for some kind of reality show ethics committee or is that going to far in itself by censoring free speech and limiting opportunity?
