It started that way. Then it moved on to actors and/or people taking advantage of incentives (hotels, restaurants, cash) to pretend they have a scandalous story. The show got totally out of hand towards the later years.
Jerry showed us all just how fucked up people are.

The urban exodus will exclude those who have sec 8 HUD paying 90% of their rent.
Government workers and geezers without money will also stay put.

The problem with shock is that you eventually bore the audience and can't top the last show.
People have always liked freak shows and drama, nothing new under the sun. People brought tickets to see "Glenn or Glenda?" in the 1950s in your downhome small town theater. I remember some Horror and Low Budgets ("Video Dreadfuls") from the 1970s and early 80s more fucked up than anything made today, which is tame in comparison. The Mountains have Ears. Blood Drinking Freaks. Kentucky Woodchipper Massacre. Faces of Death I-MXCVI, etc.
I think exhaustion and (worse in the PoMo era) boredom from shock is taking over, people have had a bellyfull.

Howard Stern was most decidedly a freak show of the pathetic and the dismal urban freakoids in olden days. One show was really unbelievable when he had a whole group of men with micro penises display themselves nude on the show, micro penises and all.

I think that there will always be a demand for affordable housing that will keep cities occupied. Those Hondurans gotta live someplace.

For 27 years, the lifelong Democrat Springer peddled filth and perversion over the airwaves, and he did it all for money.
Now he is dead, and the only thing left for him is to face judgment. Unfortunately, the societal decay and rot that he helped to create lives on.
