How do I make my iOS7 UITableViewController NOT appear under the top status bar?

Question

My root controller is a TabBarController (tabbed application). One of the tabs, is a UITableViewController. When I switch to that and scroll through the items, they show up

Answer 1

self.tableView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(20, 0, 0, 0);

20 px being the height of the status bar. If you have a navigation bar use 64 instead of 20
