"Selling out" is an all-or-nothing preposition, after all, and Reality TV demands no less, so price accordingly. Still, hilarious in the wikipedia/facebook era that anybody can expect to be on TV and remain anonymous. Nobody ever heard of the "Dog Poop Girl" in Korea a few years ago? Talk about a national witch hunt...

Katherine Smith/Barclay's claims of a highly sensitive job don't cut it, either. She's a corporate lawyer, not an FBI agent.
