Default A fool and his money are easily parted

Watch this and tell me to my face the quiz channels arent money grabbing cheating scum.

What really p!sses me off is the fact these scum are playing to the dreams of the poorer end of society. The sort of folks to whom a thousand quid could make a real difference to their lives.

This is in German, but you don't really need to understand what she says to get what happens.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7j5OehXQpM

an old lady called 300+ times to get through wins €600, but goes on to explain that she watches the whole show and her last phone bill was €3000. Bloke looks shocked and tells her quite sternly something like "please listen to me: every week in jan-aug 2007, just call once!"

Not that I'm trying to say that I agree with quiz shows, but at least this shows that some of these people do have compassion.
