I wasn't being too sarcastic, but extreme or not, his statement refelcts our current obsession with watching drama between people. We love those "reality" tv shows that involve fighting, arguing, cursing, etc. We like that kind of stuff. It's a lot more entertainment than seeing people passively having a debate or just circle jerking (agreeing) I do my best to stay away from that filth but they still got the ratings.

In other words, drama = entertainment.

Agreed. That's what I took your comment to mean. But, it's almost redundant conversation that gets overlooked by people sometimes so I can understand the need to point it out the way you did...
