I recently took Media Criticism here at Medaille with Buffalo News critic, Alan Pergament. I enjoyed it very much as I learned a lot. One of the things that I got out of the course was about reality television and what goes into making it.

I am not a big reality television person but I really enjoy watching Donald Trump’s Celebrity Apprentice. I used to watch the old Apprentice but I got bored with it. So when they added athletes, actors, super models and playboy models I decided to give the show another chance.

What I learned in Pergament’s class is that reality television is not 100 percent real. The producers like to set up situations that are controversial and create chaos. But with the Celebrity Apprentice, the producers don’t really have to create turmoil on the show when they have Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth.

First of all, I have a problem with Omarosa being on the show as a celebrity in the first place. She is considered a reality television star. Just because you were a disgrace on The Apprentice once before doesn’t make you a celebrity. But anyway, she does bring controversy and goes looking for trouble so I know the producers love her.

The second problem I have with her is that she is a horrible business person and she is still on the show. She has not raised a dime for her charity and is just being kept on to keep the feud between Piers Morgan alive and the ratings up. Recently the feud between Omarosa and Piers has gotten out of hand as Donald Trump has put them on the same team. Again great for ratings which is what television is all about, But Omarosa has stepped over the line as she started to bring Piers’ family in the conversation which is totally classless, like she is. She is one of those people that thinks she is God’s greatest gift to life. I can’t stand people like that. She is classless and does not deserve to be in this game for charity anymore.

Dear Mr. Trump,

Please fire Omarosa. She is a disgrace to the show. It will be much better off without her.
