Back To The Corrupt Future

Consider a show based on the facts surrounding the “Fast and Furious" Scandal or the IRS Scandal

Back in the day when the three networks ruled the airways, people escaped the rigors of everyday life and gathered with their family to enjoy watching a television program. And although everyone knew that in real life, justice doesn’t always prevail, for those few hours at least, families could be confident that before the credits rolled across their television sets, somehow good would triumph over evil.

Imagine how those same families of the past would have reacted if one of the three networks created a program series based on the future scandals of the Obama Administration. It would be a kind of “Back to the Corrupt Future” television series, where episodes would cover the numerous national disgraces. For sure, there would be a mountain of illegal material to work with; a virtual treasure trove of unlawful and unconstitutional activity.

This is a brilliant piece.

Back in the Days of the Hollywood Code, it was mandated that the Good Guy had to get the girl, and the Crooks had to be brought to Justice. But those days are over.

A TV show which details rampant, blatant, unmitigated corruption, without ANY chance of the bad guys ever paying the slightest price for their continuous, decades-long in-your-face malfeasance ... what would the viewers think??

It’s the world we live in. You want “Reality TV”? That’s it.
