After dramatic 'Bachelorette' finale, has reality TV gone too far?
Three in five Americans believe reality TV has gone too far, according to new research. A new survey of 2,000 respondents examined people’s perceptions of reality TV with results showing many feel unscripted programs are taking too many liberties monetizing participants’ traumatic moments. Respondents were asked whether they felt reality TV has taken participants’ personal hurt too far in entertainment—and a little more than half (57%) believe it has. The survey, conducted by Talker Research, comes after the controversial Bachelorette season 21 finale in which star Jenn Tran was forced to re-watch her engagement breakup on live TV.
