CBS’ exploitative new reality show pits struggling families against each other for $101K 

On Wednesday, CBS aired the first episode of their new series The Briefcase. The show follows struggling American families who are suddenly given $101,000 and a choice: They can either keep the money or give some or all of it to another needy family. But CBS’s decision to literally profit off impoverished Americans is worse than just simple corporate greed.

This is disgusting.
