UK phone-in scandal costs viewers $18m

UK phone-in scandal costs viewers $18m : "In other examples of abuse, the production team on Soapstar Superstar ignored viewer votes and picked songs they thought more suitable for contestants to sing. On one occasion, two contestants were thrown off, despite not finishing last in the viewer vote."

Yes, the world really is full of ways and means of getting money out of our pockets into theirs and it is good that this particular phone in model has been questioned and dealt with in a serious manner. We really are played for suckers sometimes and it's about the wake up call! We need to constantly question whether we actually need to be spending that money and whether we are getting bang for our back. Sometimes we just walk into it all too easily.
