[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This American Life did a really great segment on this (incredibly f-ed up) show. Yes, they blur the lines about live news coverage and they also target people who they know will make “good TV.”

I'll have to check this out.  I used to hate-watch LivePD but now can't even stomach that.

They are always following the officers whose beat is in the poorer neighborhoods with known drug issues.  So many, "know why I pulled you over this evening?  Because that house you just left is a known drug house."  And then the searching of the car happens and... drugs aren't found.

And yes, they definitely do target people.  This YouTuber knew they'd be filming and set out to troll them.  He painted 420 on his back window, dressed crazy, gave vague answers, and ended up getting arrested because even though he passed all of the field tests, the officer just KNEW he was on something.
