DHS Reviews Controversial Reality Show Pitch: Immigrants to Compete for Citizenship
The Department of Homeland Security is reviewing a proposal for a reality TV show called "The American." The show would feature twelve immigrants competing in challenges across the country, with the grand prize being US citizenship. This concept has raised concerns about its potential to exploit vulnerable individuals and its resemblance to the dystopian "Hunger Games." A spokesperson for DHS stated that they are reviewing the pitch, but offered no further comment. The show's producer, Rob Worsoff, is known for his work on "Duck Dynasty." The ethical questions raised by "The American" highlight the complex issues surrounding immigration and reality television.
