PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

100. "RE: Reporter Confession or Coverup?" |
He's responsible for "the greatest lie ever told on Survivor," says Probst, who's heard a few whoppers.... Let me speak from the perspective of a newspaper editor with lots of reporting experience. I think the reporter is being coy, and is somewhat accurate in both stories. That first sentence does not say Jon tells the lie. He is "responsible for" the lie. Which just might means he triggers the conversation or circumstances that lead to the lie. The retraction says that he wrote down "Jon is the liar," which he may have written down. But in writing the story, he actually remembered Jeff's phrasing to be "responsible for the biggest lie." So that's what he wrote. I don't think Jeff told the reporter what the lie was, or who told it. I think Jeff chose the wording "responsible for." Now the reporter doesn't know any more than that, and he wants the readers to stop bugging him for more info. CBS flacks have reached out the reporter to clarify what he wrote. So he writes a simple retraction saying "I know nothing" and tries to put it behind him. But there are plenty of scenarios that involve Jon, a big lie that the others won't learn until the show airs, and then big regrets.
Perhaps, for instance, Jon has sex with Christa. He brags and Christa denies it, brutally humilating him in the process. But CBS basically proves her to be lying. Christa is the liar, Jon is "responsible," and the regret would be obvious. The girl is supposed to be married soon. Jeff did say he is waiting for it to play out, but that the other contestants still do not know about the lie. This means there will be some strong reactions when the truth is revealed in one of the episodes. Maybe Jeff is waiting to see if Christa's fiance forgives her. These reality show contestants need a reality check!
