'Idol' contestant doesn't reflect on city

Regarding Ron Smith's letter ("'Idol' goes too far," Jan. 31) on the behavior of one of the local "American Idol" contestants:

We all know how ridiculous this girl was viewed. "American Idol" wanted attention and they got it. They would have used another state, another place, so don't think it's just a desire to "pick on Greensboro."

We all know not to let our children watch the beginning of the show. It's been on the radio, the TV and newspapers. It's pure ignorance.

I hope they paid her enough money to cover that body and that filthy, screaming mouth. She needed Paula Abdul's water to wash it out.
