American Idol has become a huge phenomenon. It not only captures number one ratings on television, better then all the Law and Orders and CSI's combined, the show actually delivers on it's promise of turning the winners (and even runner ups) into rich, successful Idols. This, I believe, has caused jealousy and dissension from other networks and AOL's entertainment news writer Edward Wyatt agrees. He says in his article, Howard Stern is Trying to Kill Your Idol,( http://news.aol.com/entertainment/tv/articles/_a/howard-stern-is-trying-to-kill-your-idol/20070331094009990001?ncid=NWS00010000000001) "Three-quarters of the network television executives in Hollywood have tried to figure out how to derail American Idol...now Howard Stern has found a way."

American Idol puts the three people with the least amount votes in the bottom. Not only is Sanjaya Malakar who the judge Randy Jackson once said his singing wasn't listenable has not been voted off but hasn't been in the bottom three since Howard Stern started his votefortheworst.com campaign. The most famous judge on American Idol, Simon Cowell told Extra that he would not be back to American Idol if Sanjaya wins.

If this information gets you down because you are a fan of American Idol, you are not alone! Groups are popping up all over the internet starting a Save American Idol campaign. One group titled Fans of American Idol on cafemom.com enlist people to sign up and promise to dial their fingers to the bone voting for one of the actual talented singers. Hopefully this will work. I do watch American Idol and I am not a huge fan but I hate when jealous people try to get their way by being sneaky and underhanded. Why not create a show good enough to compete with American Idol then trying to sabotage it. I will be dialing my fingers to the bone this Tuesday after the competition ends.
