THERE'S GOOKS EVERYWHERE " A good buddy and retired Marine colonel] told me, "Geezus-watch your six. They might try to take you out " In his latest controversial memoir, Cork Graham blows the lid off the reality TV industry. Graham entered this world of fraudulent broadcasting as team leader of Discovery Channel's 2015 #1 New Hit Series TREASURE QUEST: SNAKE ISLAND. Invited to lead a hunt for the mysterious Treasure of the Trinity, he soon learned that there was no way any treasure would be found in what was a fully scripted show advertised to the public as a "true-life" documentary. He quickly learned the character profile and show model that is used to produce "reality" TV shows not only at Discovery Communications, but also at A&E and National Geographic in such Fakeumentaries as BERING SEA GOLD, GOLD RUSH, DUAL SURVIVAL, HUNTING HITLER, ALASKA THE LAST FRONTIER, and LIFE BELOW ZERO. Global and far-reaching, Graham even takes to task embassies and news services for their ignorance of the impact on various national histories, through a media format that has paved the way for "Fake News." With Discovery Communications CEO David Zaslav making over $42 Million in 2017, there's a lot at stake
