Idolatry: Viewers worship Fox's golden calf, spurn gold medals
The AP says what NBC has feared all along: Amateur skiers can’t hold a candle to amateur singers.
“The winter Olympics are no match for television’s gold-medal winner, “American Idol.” Fox’s phenomenally successful contest crushed the Olympics in head-to-head competition on Tuesday night, 27 million viewers to 16.1 million, according to Nielsen Media Research.”
First, Idol deafened the Grammys, now the Olympics? Thank God the Oscars are on a Sunday night. If Fox really wants to be evil, they should prep a special “Sunday Night Idol” for March, 5th.
Ahem!
