    Ep. - 1041 - THE INVENTION OF REALITY TV WITH EMILY NUSSBAUM, AUTHOR OF CUE THE SUN!: THE INVENTION OF REALITY TV

    Ep. - 1041 - THE INVENTION OF REALITY TV WITH EMILY NUSSBAUM, AUTHOR OF CUE THE SUN!: THE INVENTION OF REALITY TV

    Emily Nussbaum is a staff writer at The New Yorker, where she’s worked since 2011, originally as the magazine’s television critic. In 2016, she won the Pulitzer Prize for criticism. She is the author of Cue The Sun!: The Invention of Reality TV. 

      

    Who invented reality television, the world’s most dangerous pop-culture genre? And why can’t we look away? In this revelatory, deeply reported account of the rise of “dirty documentary”—from its contentious roots in radio to the ascent of Donald Trump—Emily Nussbaum unearths the origin story of the genre that ate the world, as told through the lively voices of the people who built it. At once gimlet-eyed and empathetic, Cue the Sun! explores the morally charged, funny, and sometimes tragic consequences of the hunt for something real inside something fake.
