I think far more relavant is "Its also staged/produced/edited and not real life." My conversations are not edited by some editor and bits left out ....
what I hold to be true is probably not to be found on a TV show hosted by Oprah. After 2 1/2 decades of chaos and insanity I will not leave my choices to a voice on a 'black box' rather I will rely on my experience and that of my peers, learning as I go and sure there may be something to learen from TV but is it worth all the conditioning that goes with it?
