PROFIT SEEKERS!! FOR SURE
The show has been and always will be a laughing stock. Singing doesn't equal musical talent, the show is geared only towards 1 genre of music and not only that its the worst genre "pop music". These contestants aren't musicians they're blueprints for the American Idol record label. Since when did being a musician have anything to do with "a look"
I should be only be about ones ability to write songs, make their own music, play an instrument and be original. NONE of those things fit with ANYONE who's EVER been on this joke of a show. They do nothing but cram these people down our throats via, Crappy Mtv, radio and now the news (I've heard more about Sanjaya these past two weeks than I have about the British Hostages in Iran.) After they fill the airways with this crud and pay stations to feed us this garbage they get Grammy's for airplay and 12 year old girls buying the albums, oh and for those that say... "It takes talent to win a Grammy's." all I have to say to that is Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli.
American Idol is nothing but propaganda for the Fox network.
something to keep your eyes off REAL issues going on in the world.
1.) War in Iraq
2.) War in Afghanistan
3.) GENOCIDE IN DARFUR (wtf GENOCIDE!!!!)
4.) "Free and Fair Trade" Exploiting workers around the world and taking away Jobs from hard working Americans.
5.) The American People being fed up with foreign policy
6.) Rising Cost of Education. ( I HAD TO SELL DRUGS just to pay for tuition for a "STATE" College. "FSU")
7.) Growing Gap between the Rich and Poor of this Country.
8.) The fact that it takes TWO JOBS in ONE HOUSE JUST TO GET BY in this country.
9.) The Bubbled Housing Market (The show "Flip this house" had a 2 bedroom home in "SOUTH CENTRAL L.A." listed for $425,000 post flip.. ALMOST A HALF A MILLION DOLLARS.)
10.) The fact that Bill O'reilly is a Douche Bag.
Please support REAL AMERICAN IDOLS the Union Men and Women that built this country with this blood, sweat and tears.
Although I didn't stay Focused on the topic, please stay focused on real issues.

It doesn't embody ideals for most Americans. It's only a dream for a few who want to be stars. AI is just an ENTERTAINMENT show, guilty pleasure thing. It's something to talk about with strangers and co-workers.
It's not to be taken seriously. It is possible to watch, criticize, and like the show + care about real issues in the world.

it is profit seeking now. I think the first couple of years it was ok and the people actually voted for who they thought was the best singer. But it has gone downhill the past several years..

profit seeking. just grooming more singers to dole out more remakes and generic crap. None of these people are writing songs that convey a thought or emotion. I think that the only reason Simon is mad about Sanjaya is that now, its obvious. I love it. It makes me think of Andy Samberg from SNL and I laugh and I laugh and I laugh. None of these people are heartfelt musicians anyway.

Profit seeking - past, future(if any), and present..
