– It seems like someone would rather not have our WEBCAM, linked yesterday afternoon by the nice people at DenverPost.com, trained on “The Real World” Denver house. After figuring out where it was filming from, someone put yellow caution tape over the lens. This morning it also had a nice little drawing of a middle finger covering it.
– Gee, think it was an angry MTV production assistant? I’d be shocked. Shocked! You’d think a cast of seven people living their lives in public wouldn’t mind having one more little camera on them (since there are like 10 exterior ones on the house), but apparently they do. Then again, MTV is adamant about controlling every aspect of the pre-show publicity, so it would make sense for them to do this (if indeed it was them).
– The offending materials have since been removed from the camera, but now there’s a charter bus blocking the front of the house. A trip to the mountains for the cast and crew, perhaps? We’ll see…

Wow, you’d think such a rogue MTV PA would have a little more originatlity than drawing a middle finger to cover your web-cam. That is so like, 8th Grade…but then again I guess thats MTV’s current demographic.

Keep it up. Anytime in PUBLIC has the right to take pictures and interact as normal without being threatened by meathead quasi security officers.

Hey John, good to see you’re putting that journalism degree to good work stalking a bunch of MTV low-lifes. Impressive.

Sounds like Smoochy is bitter. Either she/he is a defender of Journalism degrees or she/he has some repressed anger going on.
Keep it up John. I’d think these Real World peeps would be happy to have some actual credible attention for once. Maybe they don’t realize that after this show, they’ll be life-long game-show contestants on MTV and used as examples of whats wrong with American Society.
