I think 'any' reality show has not so much a fix in them as 'manipulation' of the viewing public, which is much more evident in the spin off shows and the way they are pushed to have select sheepguests on the shows who nine times out of ten will conform to the producers wishes or ways of thinking. Victor Eubewa, and especially Pete Burns being very evident of being someone who has turned into a BB C5 sheepguest, probably because his career is at a standstill/going nowhere, so he has resorted to doing C5's bidding. They know certain sheepguests and regular same old, same old, sheepaudiences will have the desired effect 'to a certain degree' of turning many a vote round. Having said that, I think the worst effect on reality show voting, especially with a one on one are betting stings. Just my opinion though.
