How did a real bear look fake? Have you ever seen a bear that isn't in a zoo before?

Just for the record let us look at OLN's track record with shows they claimed were not staged and were proven to be.
Ghost Hunters
UFO Hunters
Destination Truth(They never find anything)
and the biggest one they tried to sell as the real deal - Operation Repo.
OLN scripts all their shows and then denies it, Mantracker is no different.

When did I say that?

Ive said Bouwmeester is not as bad as many on CP make him out to be.

Not sure where the not admitting when you're wrong thing came from either..

Yes. I have seen mechanical bears that look real. The reason I thought that bear was fake is it really didn't look legit to me the way the fur folded near its arm when it reached in and how it reacted to being smacked. I also did not know the bear was very familiar with the guy who smacked it and there was a show based on his dealings with bears. What that has to do with Mantracker I have no clue, beerfest taking it off topic just to take a cheap shot.

Out of all those shows, including Mantracker, Mantracker is the only show produced by OLN. OLN doesn't script any of those shows you listed above, they just bought the distribution rights for Canada from stations in the States.

Yet they only carry the scripted shows like that. So they produced their own, I still say it is all scripted despite what they claim. They are certainly not the first to make the claim on a show like this. You think it is real, okay. I am not buying it though.

Are you for real? You derailed the thread with your smartass bear comment. Talk about the show or take a hike.

Yes, it is totally against logic that a TV Network would script a show and then claim it was not. Why that is never ever happened before! Are you going to try again?

You're the one saying its fake. It should be up to you to provide the evidence that shows its fake, as of right now ive seen none.

I played golf with Mantracker (Terry Grant) himself last summer. I asked him a similar question as to wether it was fake. He said it wasn't.

No, I said I believe it is fake. Have you seen any evidence to prove it isn't besides OLN saying it to keep ratings? Neither of us can prove it either way. I am totally entitled to come into a thread and say I don't believe something. Ripping somebody for doing so by taking a cheap shot instead of debating like others shows true character.
