'Dancing With the Stars': Bristol Palin prompts man to shoot television
If you were upset about Brandy's elimination from "Dancing With the Stars," we seriously hope your Bristol Palin frustration didn't prompt you to shoot your television set, like it did a 67-year-old Wisconsin man.
The AP reports Steven Cowan,
of Vermont, Wisconsin, became so enraged with Bristol's performance
during the Nov. 15 broadcast, he blasted his TV with a shotgun,
prompting a stand-off with a SWAT team.Oh, and in between the TV and the standoff, he pointed the gun at his wife -- a Palin supporter? -- who escaped to call the police. When they arrived on the scene, he refused to come out of the house. He stayed inside until Tuesday morning, when he was finally taken into custody.
Facing second-degree reckless endangerment charges, Cowan could receive up to 10 years in jail, $25,000 in fines and a lifetime of embarrassment at the Dane County Elks Lodge.

It's rigged for ratings!
It's clear that this is a popularity contest and not judgement of skill or entertainment value.
DWTS is supposedto be about learning to dance, you have to admitt, With no professional traing behind her, Bristol is the most achieved dancer. Look who she has danved against and thier training in profess. dance training. Give the kid a break and give her the credit she is due instead of who her mother is.
