I can see that there is considerable emotional investment for those participating in the show - particularly as it is broadcast live - and I'd imagine that emotions often run high.
However, as a mere viewer I find it difficult to get wrapped up in the drama of it all and prefer to see the show as nothing more than Saturday night light entertainment. I don't tend to read motives and agendas into everything in the way that many people on here seem to do.
Although I do like the spoiler thread enabling me on a Saturday night to see who leaves - very handy for me as I never see the Sunday results show - I don't really approve of people from behind the scenes gossiping about things which are going on off camera. it's really no better than the made-up nonsense that is peddled by the papers from "a source". As it cannot be disproved by anyone else, so it ends up being taken as "gospel", even though it is just one person's uncorroborated account, which may in fact be merely their own opinion.
I'm not trying to be rude about the person who is the mole - simply saying that although they may have access to insider information, it doesn't necessarily follow that it will always be a true account. On that basis, it should be treated with the same caution as any other snippet of information from "a source".”

I wouldn't say that people take it as gospel the info such mole posts ( I don't) but, like I said before and in fear of repeating myself, they have never posted inaccurate or untruthful info before which makes it hard not to believe them. Obviously this is just one person's account and is given from their point of view only, so a pinch of salt is required.




) but I don't see any reason to treat their words as 'oh, that's what happened and it's the troooth'
