Should the disabled be shown failing on ‘Idol’?
‘No, it’s cruel’ or ‘the disabled have a right to try and fail like everybody else’?

What do you think?

Incidentally based on what I saw I agree that one of the contestants at the Seattle audutions may have AS (and may have been set up by cruel co-workers) but the judges weren’t particularly nasty to him, just honest like they’d be to anybody else. That said I lean towards the view that the producers who let these people pass two auditions and then be taped simply for comic value were/are cruel. I imagine William Hung was in on the joke; these people are not.
