Amidst growing controversy that AT&T helped to rig this season’s American Idol results, the show wants to make it clear:
Kris Allen is the champion.
Earlier today Fox, Idol producers 19 Entertainment and FremantleMedia issued the following statement:
“Fox and the producers of American Idol are absolutely certain that the results of this competition are fair, accurate and verified. Kris Allen is, without a doubt, the American Idol. We have an independent third-party monitoring procedure in place to ensure the integrity of the voting process. In no way did any individuals unfairly influence the outcome of the competition.”
AT&T also defended itself:
“Last week, countless parties were held in homes, bars, and other public places across America to watch the American Idol finale. In Arkansas, a few local AT&T employees were invited to attend two local watch parties organized by the community. Caught up in the enthusiasm of rooting for their hometown contestant, they brought a small number of demo phones with them and provided texting tutorials to those who were interested.
“Going forward, we will make sure our employees understand our sponsorship celebrates the competition, not individual contestants. That said, it’s quite a leap to suggest that a few individuals could have impacted the final results.”

Have you deemed putting additional videos to your blog articles to keep the readers a lot more interested? I mean I just read over the article of yours and it was quite good but as I’m more of a visual learner,I discovered that to get more valuable. Just my my idea, Good luck
