Lawsuit: A New Kind of Reality

http://www.rabbanlaw.com/images/Premise-Liability.jpg
Legal liability, this is something we hear everywhere, all the time, in any given industry. Especially in the United States of America. It is considered the greatest country on earth, or so the slogan says. It is also the most litigious society on the planet. You cannot slip on an icy sidewalk without having the opportunity to sue the city, the store responsible for the sidewalk, and probably the little old lady that just watched while you fell on your sweet little ass.
It is not just the sidewalks around here that can be victims of lawsuits, but also every other thing around. Yes, I said “thing.” Moreover, the same is true for reality television. This industry is so opened to lawsuits that MSN Entertainment has an article dedicated to this specific subject, entitled “Reality TV lawsuits.”
