Being subjected:

tv_face.jpgFox TV have just started a new reality TV show called 'Solitary' where contestants are put into solitary confinement and stressed until their physical or mental health can't take any more.

According to the website, "a test may include repetitive cycles of number games, conducted while being subjected to loud sirens and during times of sporadic sleep deprivation".

When did psychological abuse become entertainment?
