Use the theory of communication to analyze why reality shows are so popular.

1, the "truth" of the reality show. Communication theory holds that one of the main ways for people to know the world is all kinds of information spread through the media, and everyone has the rationality to pursue truth and truth. The "real person" in the reality show weakens the performance and conforms to the audience's pursuit of "truth".

2. "Show" in the reality show. Communication theory holds that mass media has the function of providing entertainment, and the audience hopes to relax through the entertainment content of the media. The "show" in the reality show, that is, the performance part, goes beyond the real life of ordinary people, and post-editing also makes the reality show more enjoyable.

The above two points are the main reasons for the popularity of reality shows.
