Perhaps the book you are referring to is Leisureville: Adventures in America's Retirement Utopias.

It is interesting but written several years ago so is out date concerning TV.
The writer who does not like retirement communities and is biased against them probably due to the fact that he was in his 30s or 40s when he wrote the book.
The book is spiced up mainly to help sell more copies, after all he wrote it to make money.
It is however an interesting read. It explains how the Morse family aka The Developer uses various "methods" to finance and build TV. I believe the library in Wildwood has several copies
