I don't see what the scandal is, the whole series is based on who can lie, cheat, steal and con the best..
I applaud the lying contestants, they just figured out another way to win the game that nobody else ever thought about.........
Personally, I would rather the program take it to the highest level and really make it a game of survival. Kinda like Lord of the Flies or the Hunger Games.............with only one real survivor leaving the island alive.
One of the girls involved is black and an Air Force Veteran. Of course, twitter claiming everyone is racist for criticizing her.
