A new idea for a reality TV show, where immigrants would compete to win U.S. citizenship, has caused a lot of anger and criticism. The concept, which is said to be under review by the Trump administration’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS), would involve a competition where participants try to earn the chance to become citizens.
According to MSNBC, the idea was pitched to the DHS by Rob Worsoff, a TV producer who worked on shows like “Duck Dynasty.” Worsoff says the show is meant to be positive and that all participants would be legal immigrants, but many people have strongly criticized the proposal, saying it raises serious ethical concerns and fits with the administration’s strict immigration policies.
