The results are "fair, accurate and verified" and that the integrity of the voting process was protected against unfair influence.

What a load of crap,
YOU DECIDE.
PREPARE TO LOSE YOUR AUDIENCE, BIG TIME
LOS ANGELES — "American Idol" sponsor AT&T says a few overeager company employees helped Arkansas fans vote by text at viewing parties _ but didn't influence the final results.
Kris Allen of Conway, Ark., ended up winning the "Idol" title last week over Adam Lambert, who'd been cast as the frontrunner by the show's judges.
AT&T said that in the future the company will ensure employees understand that its sponsorship "celebrates the competition, not individual contestants."
In a separate statement, Fox and the show's producers said they are certain the results are "fair, accurate and verified" and that the integrity of the voting process was protected against unfair influence.
Poll Results
Thank you for voting.
Did AT&T help push Kris Allen to win?
Yes - they totally skewed it for him. 56%
No - he won because he's talented. 22%
No - he won because all the Gokey fans voted for him. 21%
The only loser here, was the winner
I have never watched American Idol.
Its perception, you friking cheated, no ifs buts or anything else, you cheated.
