‘Journalist’ Flubs Up Attack On Iron Chef America
2008-02-22 03:38:00 Like Christopher Columbus Robert Sietsema of the Village Voice has discovered something millions of people already knew about - that TV shows aren’t always what they seem. Wow. Sietsema had the good fortune to watch a taping of Iron Chef America and once he saw what television was all about he attacked with the vengeance of a child who just discovered there isn’t a Santa Claus. And he does it in such a mean spirited way that if you didn’t know better you’d think he was actually on to something. But he isn’t. What isn’t clear is whether this food critic toying with investigative journalism is is trying to whip up a sensationalist piece hoping his readers are as equally uninformed or he’s just the worst researcher on the planet. Additionally a large part of Sietsema’s issues with the production of Iron Chef seem to be a knee jerk reaction to learning for the first time how television shows are made. For example the audience is smaller t... More About: Attack
