Producer's Decision

Who would you choose?

New Evidence!

Complication Discussion

What if the show wasn't Truth be Told, but something else? Would these text messages make a difference?

Complication Discussion

What if someone hacked into Iliana's account to get these messages? Should this change the producers' decision?

Complication Discussion

Is it important that Iliana represents herself truthfully online? What does it say about her character that she doesn't?

Truth be Told

A new YoutubeTV series

Your show, called Truth Be Told, is about what happens in situations where people lie rather than tell the truth. Your host will be the one exposing the liars and congratulating people who show honesty!

Drake Casey

Hi there! My name's Drake, I'm 23, born and raised in Boston, MA (Best! City! Ever!), and I was *made* to be the host of your new show. As host, I'd love to show off my voice and inspire kids with a talent of my own. When I'm not out on the town with my friends or with my wife, I'm singing with my band or at home hanging out with my cat, Furmonster. Beyond that, I spend a lot of time online watching videos and stalking people on Instagram (just kidding), so in conclusion, pick me! I am clearly the best choice.

• Make your decision, and explain why you chose the person you chose.

Iliana Williams

Hey there, my name is Iliana. I'm 21, and I'm a huge fan of YouTube. I rarely watch anything else. My friends are always telling me I should try to host a show with lots of viewers, because, you see, I'm the best! In addition to being the sweetest girl you'll ever meet, I'm a talented cook and passionate about cooking (you should see my food blog). I think it's important for the host of the show to have a talent so they can keep the audience entertained. In short, I'm funny, I'm cute and down to earth (see picure), and I'm going to blow your socks off as the host of your new show. Can't wait to hear from ya!

How do you decide?

Digital Footprint Deep Dive

You need to review the confidential information shared by your investigator! You will comb through their digital footprints, looking for evidence that they are (or aren't) honest and that they do (or don't) work well with others.

• Are they honest? (The show is all about catching liars in the act.)
• Do they work well with others? (They will be the head of their team!)

Your Role

Producer

You work for the media company creating Truth be Told. As a producer, you need to choose a host for your reality show that will be seen by millions of teens. As part of your search, you hired an investigator to dig up info about the candidates. The investigator has brought you back screenshots for both candidates, and they reveal some [possibly] concerning inconsistencies! You don't want to make the wrong hiring decision, so you decide to dig in and read it ALL.
