Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko tētahi kaiwhakaako o mua o te whare wānanga i whakaako i tētahi akomanga i runga i te whakaaturanga rongonui a CBS, Survivor, ā, i uru atu ki te whakataetae tūturu i tēnei tau, i pōtihia atu i te hōtaka i te wāhanga tuawhā. Ko Max Dawson, nāna i rangahau nui i te whakaaturanga, ā, e rua tau i whakapau ki te whakarite i a ia ki te whakataetae, i pōtihia atu i te Rāapa nā te mea i whakaaro ētahi atu kaitākaro he 'tino haruru' ia. I whakaako a Dawson i tetahi akomanga i huaina ko 'The Tribe Has Spoken: Surviving TV's New Reality' i te Whare Wananga o Northwestern i te tau 2012 me te 2013. Panuku ki raro mō te ataata. Ko Max Dawson, he kaiwhakaako o mua o te Whare Wānanga o Te Tai Tokerau i whakaako i tētahi akomanga i huaina ko 'The Tribe Has Spoken: Surviving TV's New Reality' mō ngā tau e rua i pōtihia atu i te whakaaturanga pono rongonui o Survivor i muri i ngā wāhanga e whā anake. I whakaaro ngā kaitākaro he 'tino haruru' a Dawson. I kitea a ia e whakatakoto rautaki ana, e whakaputa ana i ngā mātauranga o ngā tau o mua i tōna wā i runga i te whakaaturanga. Engari ko tana rautaki nui, ko tana pukenga whakawhitiwhiti me tana matauranga nui mo nga waa o mua i raru i ana kaiwhakataetae, e ai ki te Chicago Tribune. I mua i te huihuinga pooti i te wahanga o te Wenerei, ka kii te kaiwhakataetae a Will Sims ko te tautohetohe ko wai ka hoki ki te kaainga ko 'ko wai te mea tino whakapataritari', a ka peia a Dawson. I te wā i whakapuakina ai e te kaihautū a Jeff Probst i te wā o te hākari, kua tae ki te wā ki te whakamahi i tētahi whakapakoko ārai mate huna, ka kōrero a Dawson, nāna i whiwhi tana tohu paetahi mai i te Whare Wānanga o Brown i te tau 1999 ā, ka whiwhi pūtaiao mai i Northwestern i te tau 2008. 'Hey Jeff, tū atu, e te tuakana,' ka mea ia i a ia e toro atu ana ki muri i tona tuara, kaore he mea i puta mai. 'Kei te hiahia tonu ahau ki te kī atu.' I hurihia e ona hoa whakataetae o ratou kanohi ki tana korero rite ki te kaiwhaiwhai. Ko Dawson, he mema o te White Collar Tribe i a ia e whakaatu ana, i kii ia ko te 'hinengaro whaiaro' te mea uaua ki te purei i te whakaaturanga.

I whakaako a Max Dawson i tētahi akomanga e kīia ana ko 'Kua Kōrero Te Rōpū: Te Ora i te Pono Hou o te TV' i Northwestern University i te tau 2012 me te 2013. I kitea ia e kōrerorero ana i ngā kōrero o te tau kua hipa ake nei, ā, he nui rawa te rautaki i runga i te whakaaturanga. I kii a Dawson ko tētahi o ngā wāhanga uaua o te whakaaturanga ko te whakahaere i ngā 'hinengaro whaiaro'
