I have a renewed distaste for reality television. I never got into MKR - but I have a number of friends who have. Although Manu has denied it there is no genuine competition, it is a manufactured process that is designed to produce the results that the producer wants, it's a completely fixed operation. The way that it was explained to me I'd say the producer's would get the result they want at least 90% of the time, and for 10% of the time the contestants may be able beat the process and produce a different result, the idea is to create the illusion of competition to the contestants and especially to the audience. The contestants should be able to work out they're being duped and I'm actually surprised that previous contestants haven't tried to sue Seven yet.

"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
