Homeland Security Might Back a Reality Show Awarding U.S. Citizenship

Homeland Security Might Back a Reality Show Awarding U.S. Citizenship
SHARE

The Department of Homeland Security has come out to criticize a recent report by the Daily Mail that suggested it may be involved in a reality show offering immigrants a chance to compete for American citizenship. In a press release labeled “Fake News Friday,” the DHS refuted the claims made by the Daily Mail, calling them false. The department specifically denied the report that Secretary Kristi Noem had backed a reality television show pitch by producer Rob Worsoff, known for his work on shows like “All or Nothing: Toronto Maple Leafs” and “Duck Dynasty.”

Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin condemned the Daily Mail’s story as “an affront to journalism” in a statement released by the DHS. She clarified that Secretary Noem had not supported or even been aware of any pitch for a scripted or reality show involving the department. McLaughlin emphasized that all television show proposals received by the DHS undergo a thorough vetting process before being approved or rejected, and the alleged pitch by Worsoff had not gone through this process.

Despite the denial by the DHS, Worsoff confirmed to the New York Times that the idea for the reality show was indeed real. The concept involved immigrants competing in challenges across the country, with the winner earning American citizenship. Worsoff explained that the show, titled “The American,” aimed to celebrate the journey and stories of immigrants without penalizing or deporting any participants.

Worsoff, a naturalized U.S. citizen originally from Canada, highlighted the importance of having a national conversation about what it means to be American and the privilege of citizenship. He expressed his desire to showcase the humanity and diverse backgrounds of the contestants on the show, emphasizing the celebration of their journeys to becoming Americans.

While it remains uncertain whether the show has been pitched to networks, the DHS refrained from providing further comments on the matter, redirecting inquiries back to their criticism of the Daily Mail’s report. However, McLaughlin hinted in her statements to the New York Times that the show’s pitch focused on celebrating American citizenship and promoting civic duty.

Variety has attempted to reach out to Worsoff’s representatives for additional comments on the situation. The controversy surrounding the alleged reality show pitch underscores the complexities and sensitivities surrounding immigration and citizenship in the United States. The DHS’s swift response to refute the claims reflects the department’s commitment to upholding its integrity and mission in handling immigration matters.
