BBC News - Stars stay silent in X Factor protest

Benefits closer reading. One example:

"There were people who were seriously into it, like Matty from The Infadels, who had his guitar and was poised to do a massive power chord, but it just never happened.

Brilliant.

I am suspicious of why they don't like X-factor

I think its because the x-factor take people who mainly sing through their noses, stick them on the telly every week, expose their family's private life to the most intrusive scrutiny and then dispose of them six months after they win. If the main prize was a residency on a cruise ship it might be fairer.

They'd probably earn as much on the cruise ship.

It's the fact these people make the news and front pages on the paper - WHY?????????????????

They don't though. I was reading an on-line news(?)paper and the fact that Cheryl Cole was wearing a hat(because it was cold. Diddums) was a bigger news story than any of the contestants.
The X-Factor has helped turned humans into disposable commodities and - however talentless they are - that cannot be right.

Yep, and let us not forget that Ms cole herself was a product of said "talent" competitions.



The media have a lot to answer for

Having been accused of being a philistine I sat through 4'33". Once. Pile of pretentious w*nk.

Yeah, I totally agree with you.

Heap of pretentious crud. Load of has-beens or never-beens trying to be.
