"real world" reality check

Ahh, that annual tradition of Generation X narcissism and self-involvement: MTV's "7 strangers in a house" documentary The Real World. FEED's Ann Marie Cox dissects the highly rated, recently-completed Hawaii season (destined to live on forever in MTV marathons). Cox grounds her article in a discussion of Amaya, the "UCLA sorority girl whose chief offense is an insuffieniently telegenic personality." All Real World watchers have their favorite "characters"; this piece presents a sympathetic defense of one who endured the wrath of castmates and viewers alike.
