So, apparently, American Idol ratings have been dropping for a while. I personally don’t watch the show, so I don’t much care. I do care about stupid people though.
In a combo of pro-gay-people and “let’s fix our ratings!”, Idol put Ellen DeGeneres (feel free to nicely correct me if I spelled that wrong) in as a judge. Then some uninformed Christian news site saw the Ellen + Ratings Drop, and linked them together.
Are You Fucking Serious?
GENTLEMEN, START YOUR STUPID. The religious überfanatics are at it again, going “HOLY SHIT GAY PEOPLE EWW GROSS GOD HATES YOU” and saying that’s why Idol’s losing steam. Saying parents are banning it in the house because they think that it’s promoting gayness to everyone.
- Stop assuming because someone’s gay they’re going to hock it off to everyone.
- Do your research before throwing shit around like that.
In case you hadn’t noticed, Christian news site that I am not disclosing, Idol’s been losing steam for a WHILE now. I think it’s because it got old, and people got bored of it.
And Ellen’s not going to inject a bunch of “I love being gay” statements (even if she does throw in some comedy once in a while – because face it, she’s funny) into her role as judge.
