FOX REALITY SHOW GIVES LIE DETECTOR TESTS


Coming this fall to Fox is a new reality show, “Nothing But the Truth” that will test people’s honesty.

Contestants, hooked up to lie detector devices, will face 21 increasingly personal questions and a chance to win $500,000 if they are totally honest.

Versions of this game show are hits in 23 countries. In Colombia, for example, more than 50 percent of the country watches each night. 

According to a Fox news release “the questions are easier when the stakes are low – but as the prize amount increases, contestants will be challenged to fess up to questions they may normally lie about. The touchier questions could be especially revealing because spouses, relatives or friends will be in the audience watching every result.”

Sample questions:

Have you ever lied to get a job?
Do you like your mother-in-law?
Do you really care about starving children in Africa?
Ever stolen anything from work?
Have you ever cheated on your spouse?

Other questions come to mind such as what kind of idiot would risk alienating a spouse and a mother-in-law?

This show sounds like interogation at the White House.
