Hung seemed to have a good time doing what he did...I never took that as making fun of him rather him taking advantage of an opportunity and making a bit of money. I actually respect him for that...

I think you are the exception & not the rule. Most people enjoy the bad contestants during the first month of the show, and Fox certainly capitalizes on that. Just look at all of the previews showing the train wrecks that people like to make fun of. Also reference the "worst of" Idol auditions, etc. Hung is probably a bad example because he was so funny. If you say you tune out for the first month when they make fun of people, than you are a better man than most I suppose. Do you read Playboy for the articles too?
