Punishment TV: We are fighting to end carceral reality TV—including shows such as ‘60 Days In’—because no one should profit from punishment.

My first thought was I was not so sure about this as it seems like you can't get enough exposure around our prisons. I however have not seen the programs and I, gasp, read the article. It brought me around. The author clams to have been encarcerated at rikers and while I can't verify it seems like something dangerous to claim since it would theoretically be easy for some folks to verify. He makes some good points and based on what I know about reality tv it likely would not be showing things as they really are like a documentry might.
