The facts speak for themselves. I would say ownng a production company with Fox as one of the clients is a little more than a small connection. I think I am beginning to understand why you are defending this. And as far as being professional. I'm sorry I think anyone who has any standards or ethics would call this contest what it is. I really don't see what networking or who you know has ANYTHING to do with a songwriting contest. If this contest was anywhere near fair. Than who you know or how well you network shouldn't come in to play at all. So when you say networking is one of the reasons that any of the top 20 got in the top 20 Than you are proving the very point I am trying to make. And as far as using my real name. Well all I am doing is sharing the facts and my name or where I.m from doesn't matter. When I entered this all I wanted was a fair shot. As I'm Sure was the case for all the other songwriters And how you are going to try and convince anyone this was fair I can't understand. And integrity and honesty? Show me where AI were honest about anything. Just look at the AI bios. On Jennifer Hamady's bio it never mentions she sang on the show this year.(WHY) Or that Marti Frederiksen is a producer with Clive Davis (WHY) Or that Cj Vanston has played with Randy Jackson (WHY) Or that Scott Krippayne And Melinda Doolittle Appear on An album togeather (WHY) It is almost embarrising to watch people try to defend this. But there are two sides to every coin. And if you are telling me this is the way it should be I'm sorry but I think you are wrong. And it really bothers me that anyone whould try to defend this. Because you are in a position to help songwriters. And I can't see how saying this is right is in any way helpful Anyway it's your board. I appreciate you allowing me to post.
Let the people decide. Thank You.
