Should Reality Trauma Shows Be Banned?

In light of the success of medical drama shows such as "ER" and "Chicago Hope," a cable network has been producing a "real-world" trauma show. Episodes are filmed in actual emergency rooms, depicting encounters between patients and physicians. Some consider these shows to be informative, in that viewers are provided a unique opportunity to see how patients are treated in trauma centers. Through this lens, viewers gain a better understanding about the successes and limits of modern medicine, and thus have more realistic expectations about the health care delivery system. Critics, however, consider these shows to be more sensational than educational in nature. Furthermore, they argue that patients in the emergency room are too confused or injured to read posted signs indicating that filming is in progress.
Do you think that reality-based trauma shows are appropriate?

Yes, because they provide the public a much-needed education regarding success and failure of trauma treatment.
Yes, because patients can refuse to allow a segment they were in to be aired.
No, because patients must be able to provide consent before filming begins.
No, because the bottom line is that these shows simply feed viewers' prurient tastes.
