Vote for the Worst!

For anyone here who is Howard Stern fan you may remember a few years back the votefortheworst.com campaign. Howard started a campaign through the radio and the internet that encouraged people to vote for American Idol contestant Sangia. For anyone that remembers he ended up making it to the final 5 or so of the competition. It is just another example of how the internet can play a huge role in "spreading the word"!

    Right. As Howard Stern showed, the internet can be just as useful a tool to provide misinformation.

    Yep I remember that. It was so powerful that some of my friends and family who didn't even watch idol were voting for the worst. I believe they do it for every season. Right now they have people voting for Janice Dickinson on I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. I don't watch the show, so I don't know how she's doing. But looking back on the site, they picked Kris Allen as the worst from this past season of idol and he actually won. So it is pretty amazing how people can use the internet to band together and achieve pretty much anything.
