What is this, the pornography of human disasters? Excuse my scepticism but your marketing hype invites suspicion.

Just another reality TV show to dull the senses of the masses. "Really make a difference" my ass!

It would really make a difference if RTE actually used the inflated licence fee they extort from the public ( in spite of also accepting advertising ) to properly educate and inform the public about what is actually going on in the world instead of overpaying pundits and spokespeople for business and the status quo and making vacant reality TV programs like this one and spending half of daytime TV advertising products and services such as cosmetic surgery to the well off.

I was actually pleasantly shocked to see RTE2 broadcast "the corporation" last night late when everyone was probably in bed. More quality informative documentaries like this in the normal evening schedule and less of this rubbish please RTE.
