I just heard about the campaign and agreed with the sentiment. I bought the rage track cos I have hated the tv 'talent' show bull for years and saw a chance to finally, and publicly, have my voice heard. Cowell obviously benefits from this whole thing but it's a symbolic victory. It shows that not everyone wants this kind of 'entertainment' rammed down their throats all the time. Enough is enough, can we have some more variety please? Hugs, elmo. I can see your point here but there are some people out there, like me, who didn’t do what facebook said.
