{{examples}}
== Anime
* ''[[Zombie Loan]]''
* ''[[Detective Academy Q]]''
Line 33 ⟶ 35:
* In ''[[Kick-Ass (film)|Kick-Ass]]'', Frank D'Amico plans to stream the execution of {{spoiler|Kick-Ass and Big Daddy}} live on the internet.
* Subverted in ''[[Death Race]]''. The death race is mandatory, but users don't control the deaths. Also, the entire event is a pay-per-view tv show.
== Literature ==
Line 40 ⟶ 41:
* In ''[[The Subject Steve]]'', there is a variant of this near the end. It is described as "a revolutionary media space that binds together the most innovative aspects of gaming, spectacle, democracy and commerce."
* For a while it seemed that every second (young)adult horror in the library was one of these.
== Live-Action TV ==
Line 61:
* An episode of season 8 of ''[[Spooks]]'' had a group of eco-terrorists kidnap a load of high-powered buisness man and host a live trial on the internet whether the businesses were unethical. If the internet voted them guilty, their execution would be streamed live.
* ''[[Tracker]]'' had an episode that involved a kidnapped girl in a tank of water that was slowly filling up. Possibly a subversion in that the kidnap turned out to be a setup by the girl to get money from her father.
== [[Video Games]] ==
Line 67 ⟶ 66:
* In ''[[Devil Survivor 2]]'', [[Meaningful Name|Nicaea]] shows videos of death... BEFORE they happen. {{spoiler|It's so you can prevent it.}}
== Web Comics ==
* ''[[Achewood]]'' had resident murderous psychopath Nice Pete take the concept one further by having the murder be tied to an automatic device controlled by web poll.
== Real Life ==
