Pamela Sitt started writing about reality TV for The Seattle Times in 2003, when the genre really took off with Joe Millionaire. Since then, her taste in television has only gotten worse.

Erin Andrews Nude Video Being Shopped Online

The video of a nude Erin Andrews shot without her consent in a hotel room is reportedly up for sale to the highest bidder.

Meantime, people trying to find the video of the popular ESPN reporter online may find their computers infected with a virus instead.

The New York Post reports that hackers are creating fake websites purported to contain the Andrews video. The Post, along with CBS’ The Early Show and Fox News, is among the outlets catching heat today for airing racy stills from the unauthorized video.

TMZ.com reports that the video shows Andrews in her hotel room, curling her hair in front of a mirror and ironing a pair of pants — in the nude. The video appears to be shot from a small hole drilled into the wall of what looks like a high-end hotel room.

It is clear that Andrews has no idea she’s being videotaped, and she is alone in the room. Newsweek posits this is precisely what makes the video so appealing to voyeurs: “Privacy, it seems, is the new nudity. This is why, when Jennifer Aniston poses topless for the cover of GQ magazine no one does more than shrug, but when paparazzi catch her sunbathing topless, its tabloid fodder for weeks.”

Andrews, through a spokesman, has requested privacy at this time and will seek legal action against the perpetrators once they are identified.
