Vote for the Worst is messing with American Idol, not Indian call centers


Much as it pains me to disagree with the articulate rant of my fellow blogger Sheldon Liber, the Vote for the Worst Web site is the cause of the mischief on this season's "American Idol" not Indian call centers who are responsible for every other ill in modern society.

Vote for the Worst perverts the very wholesome nature of the number television show by gleefully encouraging people to vote for the worst singers in the competition to continue. The nerve of these people!

The scandalous and talentless Antonella Barba was championed by the site, as was the charming but erratic Sundance Head. Sanjaya Malakar is now the object of their attention and I am scared. Sanjaya is so bad that I don't think he would be cast as the lead in my local high school musical. He might become the next American Idol if we don't stop these fiends.

Of course, the real winner in all of this hubub is News Corp. (NYSE:NWS), which continues to rake in huge profit from the show whose popularity is showing no signs of slowing.

So America, remember to vote for your favorite idol. This isn't an election for president. It's really important.
