Editing Reality Television

(From The Yahoo Avid User's Group)

"With one conversation, my story producer and I had just shaped issues of audience empathy, prolonged the release of tension, and ultimately provided a turning point in the arc of the show's characters. Now if that's not writing, I don't know what is."

I disagree. That isn't writing. That's EDITING.

How do reality stories get shaped in the edit room?

What is the role of the editor in reality television?
