The Standard; X Factor.

'Dull Matt Finish...
..An incredibly long and flat final of the X Factor which barley deserves a review, let alone any of your hard-earned money.
Five months of lies, manipulation, greed, rule changes, product manipulation, download plugs. And at the end of it all? The best singer (Rebecca Ferguson) still didn't win.
Thank goodness for those brief moment of comedy gold which kept me smiling through the bad times this weekend; Cheryl Cole's white dog turd earings.
A hideously out of tune one direction suffering the curse of Robbie Williams.
Stacey Solomon being presented with a pizza in the shape of Matt Cardles future. And the last act of defiance from Cher Lloyd, the Malvern-based rap skeleton.
'When you've got a dream you dont just climb the ladder half way you climb all the way to the top'
You go for it girl. Britain needs window cleaners.'

That's what The Standard thinks of The X Factor. To be totally honest, I am so incredably shocked. The vast majority of people seem to love the series! I know I for one watched this series religiously. I thought the Cheryl and Cher digs where very amusing though. Bit harsh on one direction, although Robbie Williams was fairly high during the show. Which I think everybody noticed. Extreamly harsh on Matt, I think he's a fantastic singer. And Rebecca will go far, she didn't need to win the show. Anyways, the last three or four acts in the show always do good. What's your opinion on The Standards view? Agree, disagree?
