Vote For The Worst

A lot of people seem to think that reality television is a sign of the end times for American civilization. I'm here to tell you that this notion is downright ridiculous. Not only has reality television given us such TV classics as "My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance", the original "Joe Millionaire" (but not the sequel), and "Fox News", but it has also made stars out of losers like William Hung on American Idol.

And now, there is a website dedicated to ensuring that we get the "best" American Idol has to offers us. At votefortheworst.com, loyal watchers are rallying behind Scott Savol, who is apparently the least talented singer on the show.

From the website:

"TV is supposed to be about the entertainment value, and what's more entertaining than a fish out of water outlasting the big fish and sharks? The producers wanted Scott in the top group so he could fail, but let's give them the monster that they've created."

Let's hear it for the democratic process!
