In 2003, the reality show America’s Next Top Model hit and became a highly controversial sensation. Series creator, host, and judge Trya Banks is suing Netflix over what she claims are false narratives in its recent docuseries, Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model.  Banks’ defamation lawsuit says that the company cut a 3 1/2-hour interview she gave, down to just 16 minutes.
