  • Balloon Boy” Hoax, a Call to Regulate the Long-Ignored Issue of Parental Exploitation of Children
    WHAT WILL IT TAKE?: IN THE WAKE OF THE OUTRAGEOUS “BALLOON BOY” HOAX, A CALL TO REGULATE THE LONG-IGNORED ISSUE OF PARENTAL EXPLOITATION OF CHILDREN RAMON RAMIREZ* I. INTRODUCTION On October 15, 2009, the world was captivated by the story of a little boy in peril as he allegedly floated through the Colorado sky in a homemade balloon.1 The boy’s parents, Richard and Mayumi Heene, first alerted authorities with an “emotional and desperate” 9-1-1 call, claiming that their son Falcon was in a balloon that had taken off from their backyard.2 Rescuers set out on a “frantic” ninety-minute chase that ended when the balloon “made a soft landing some 90 miles away;” but to their surprise, no one was in it.3 One of Falcon’s older brothers repeatedly said he saw Falcon get into the balloon before it took off, and a sheriff’s deputy said he saw something fall from the balloon while it was in the air, causing rescuers to fear the worst: Falcon fell out.4 The story appeared to have a happy ending after Falcon emerged from the family attic where he was hiding because his father yelled at him earlier in the day.5 That evening, the family appeared on Larry King Live on the Cable News Network (“CNN”) to tell their story, and when asked by his parents why he did not come out of the attic when they initially called for him, Falcon responded, “[y]ou guys said we did this for the show”; with that, suspicions began to arise.6 * J.D., University of Southern California Law School, 2011.

  • Reality Tv As Popular Science: the Making of a Genre
    REALITY TV AS POPULAR SCIENCE: THE MAKING OF A GENRE by PAUL MYRON HILLIER (Under the Direction of James F. Hamilton) ABSTRACT This study addresses reality TV as popular science. Proposing that we might better understand this popular media form by locating it within a wider context, the project locates key traditions and practices that were drawn upon to help formulate reality TV in the United States in the history of social experiments. During the emergence of commercial forms of popular science in the nineteenth century, P.T. Barnum was an influential creator of a form of entertainment in which the object was to discern what was real in a manufactured amusement. By the 1950s and 1960s, both Candid Camera creator Allen Funt and behavioral psychologist Stanley Milgram formulated their projects as social experiments that placed unsuspecting people into carefully designed situations. Psychologist Phillip Zimbardo reconfigured social experiments in his Stanford prison experiment, paralleling similar uses in the public- television series An American Family, by studying social roles and types. All of these previous practices offered methods and rationales for what is known currently as reality TV, a genre that Mark Burnett helped develop by claiming to test and examine types of human behavior, and inform the ongoing making of a genre well-suited for the post- network era. Adding to more recent work of critical genre analysis, one of the contributions of this study is to explore social experiments as a genre. This study also documents the many characteristics shared by the scientific and commercial versions of social experiments, arguing that they have informed each other and have been responses to and products of the same social imperatives.

  • Entertainment Or Exploitation?: Reality Television and the Inadequate Protection of Child Participants Under the Law
    NOTES ENTERTAINMENT OR EXPLOITATION?: REALITY TELEVISION AND THE INADEQUATE PROTECTION OF CHILD PARTICIPANTS UNDER THE LAW CHRISTOPHER C. CIANCI* “Fame is a powerful ruler . There’s a societal structure that we’ve built, in part thanks to television, that says this is the thing you want, desire, and aim for. That’s a powerful lure for individuals in our society.”1 I. INTRODUCTION Reality shows have undoubtedly changed the business of television in America while also having an enormous effect on the American television- viewing experience. Considering the form’s immense success as a major— and recently crucial2—part of network programming over the last decade, reality programming has evolved past delivering content to a niche market of television viewers to now receiving mass, even global, appeal. Further, reality programs are still inexpensive to produce as compared to the production costs of scripted programs, a concept friendly to producers and to broadcasters, both nationally and internationally.3 While viewed as a natural money-maker by producers and production studios, reality television has been, and still is, a thorn in the side of the artist unions, like the Screen Actors Guild (“SAG”) and the Writers Guild of America (“WGA”),4 with producers of the genre continuing to dodge proper use of * J.D. Candidate, University of Southern California Law School, 2009. I would like to thank my Note advisor, Professor Heidi Rummel, for her guidance during this process. I also would like to thank my colleague and friend Stephanie Aldebot for her continued assistance and support. 1 Maria Elena Fernandez, Is Child Exploitation Legal in ‘Kid Nation’?
