I don't  see what the problem is.
It's a TV show!
The only reason a TV show  exists, is to sell Viagra and Tampons.
Truth is flexible and/or irrelevant,  it(the show) absolutely must
entertain the viewer so that the product can  be sold.
Blood, gore and crashes SELL!  Just watch a NASCAR  commercial. Crash,
crash, crash, crash, etc.


Two or three  non-commercial stations exist, but their viewer base is
very small because  usually they
are not ENTERTAINING!!! They usually are just  factual.

Remember back to my original thought ?  
"You'd think a day to day, from on the road to, tech, Salt Talks, the  
parking lot at the Nugget, rat rods, all the international spectators and  
participants, and all our usual suspect characters, could generate something  
marketable .  A kind of Endless Summer treatment, remember that movie  ?"
Nobody commented on that,  does anybody think this is a good idea ?  
AND, as Dr.Mayf suggested, maybe sending along a comment to our old pal  Land 
Speed Louise @
_www.landspeedproductions.biz_ (http://www.landspeedproductions.biz) 
would help vent on an individual basis or get some explanatory feedback  ?
I will, don't know about youse all.
