Here's an American Idol scandal you can get angry about. Last week AT&T, the only mobile phone network you can use to text in AI votes, announced that 38% of the votes for the winner came from Kris Allen's home state, Arkansas.

And this week comes the announcement that AT&T held two parties in Arkansas specifically for Kris Allen fans in which they were given cellphones, taught how to "power text" -- send ten votes with one button press -- and allowed to text for free.

Stupid marketing, or conspiracy? Beats me. But throw this in with the gay-bashing judges on So You Think You Can Dance and you've got the gayest network on television acting pretty anti-gay.
