An article in The (Athens, Alabama) News Courier on the impact the television writers strike is having on what is being aired quotes Elayne Rapping, professor of American studies, who said, "There's some of us who still want quality, but most of America is hooked on these reality shows. I think [the strike] could be the end of quality TV." The article appears in more than 20 small newspapers throughout the Midwest and South.
