In Brazil, Reality TV Can Get You Killed

In the US, only the healthcare system can...

A talk show host in Brazil was arrested for allegedly masterminding crimes, including murder, that he would then uncover and solve in his role as an investigative journalist.

Evil, no doubt. But it has a certain dark Stephen King-meets-Dexter-meets-Geraldo-Rivera charm that we appreciate on a macabre level.

Lying about things that aren't in the healthcare bill, like Grannie is going to get sent to a Marquis de Sade-esque torture chamber, just to protect corporate profits? That isn't charming at all, and will lead to a lot more deaths than the Brazilian version of The Running Man.
