Stan and List:

Good point. However, the problem is that the producers make the
good guys look like bad guys by editing out all the good stuff.
As you said, truth is not their thing. That does much more harm
than good.

It would better to let the producers wonder why all the good guys
are boycotting them. Viewers should do the same, or agree to
boycott the advertisers - I have.
