#1 Most of the audience came away with the impression that neither had won the
debate.

Some people who were there (160 euros of admittance) and commented on blogs thought Marine Le Pen was the clear winner of this debate, and that she put ramadan on the ropes; apparently, there is a pirate recording, to which the owner of the rightwing blog Françoisdesouche has listened to, but its owner is reticent to let it be put online.

#2 Why don't we have shows like that here. That's real reality TV. By the way, most RTV shows are somewhat fixed. Contestants are asked, "You know what would work for us?" They tell them what they would like (read: expect), and - with inducement of further lucrative participation - the "real" person acts out the "suggestion" as if it is a script. The only reality is that Producers are rating-whores. Money talks.

Hey! if it get ratings, WTF?
