A documentary on the power of editing?

My experiences on 'Quiz Trippers' has highlighted the absolute power of the editor and the absolute lack of power for the person/people being edited unless you are an A lister in some blockbuster.

The editor has an absolute responsibility to those involved to portray reality participants in a fair, representative and just manner as those in newspapers.

Has T.V become a back door for saying and doing what you want through the medium of visuals?

An editor is the magician. Through visuals they hold the magic wand creating a whole range of impressions and images for the viewer, some fair, some otherwise.

I would like to see a documentary on editing and how it can affect those involved for the the good and otherwise AND for those taking part in reality type shows to see their involvement before it is shown. Forewarned is forearmed and if appropriate say 'no' to it being transmitted.
