Fox's IDOL and whether anyone on it has any musical talent whatsoever.
If you haven't watched it, you should watch 1 or 2 episodes. That

I lost the thread of who wrote this, but I have some inside insight
(department of redundancy department), into this. A young baritone I
know was a semi - finalist (or something like that in the auditioning
process) in this debacle a year or so ago. As he got closer to the
point where they'd let him compete on TV, he was challenged with the
question, "You have musical training, don't you?" When he answered,
"yes", he was summarily rejected.
Did anybody ever really think those shows would be fair? Not me, certainly.
