why I posted the ghost-hunter television reviews

Sometimes people post what they believe, and sometimes people post an interesting viewpoint or bit of info that is not what they believe. In this case, I don't believe or not believe that the individual shows are "reality;" I simply thought the reviews of the shows provided an interesting viewpoint. The article author is very harsh with her opinions. You are most likely right though; the supernatural reality series are probably just as "real" as all the others.

My Comment to Ms. Ghost-Hunter Fact-Checker

First of all, you are a writer; so your 'being harsh'--even if you DO write down whatever your 'harshness' evokes in you--is little more than background static to the readers ... oh, it's easily picked-out and easily 'blamed on you'; but you have to remember that readers choose the writing's emotion in the end. (I feel like I have to say that because people too often directly mistake 'things a writer writes/says' for 'things a writer thinks' ... it's USUALLY good to think what you say, but not always!) I haven't ever seen any of the shows you mention (BBC? BBCI?), but I would hold them in the same regard as most reality-television; sure I'll believe COPS pulling-over a drunk-driver WAY BEFORE I'll believe E.T.'s hovering over Stonehenge, but the investigations are real!... -ish ---surfed in from http://www.xomba.com/real_life_ghost_hunter_examin... ---Uncle MythMan & we Xombies Enlighten You on Money, Love, God etc. Turn Xombie & Help! & LinkBrander will help you 'feast on the Internet Brains'!
