I think that this would be true in a lot of cases, but with these things, even if you remove the reality TV, there are enough registration fees being paid to make it sustainable. I think that the pageants are a self-sustaining model. Parents are willing to spend all sorts of coin on clothes, make-up, waxing, registration fees, etc. and these things will exist forever.

Edit: But Captain Crunch is right as well - they're not doing it for the money.
