Why the wrong person always wins

From the title itself the author poses a very biased point of view. He criticizes people that he deems to be undeserving of the prize. What he actually does not realize is that there are people who deserve some sort of prize as well. He does bring up a good question though, which is "who actually deserve a prize?" It really depends on what category we bring it up. Just like what he says, even Mussolini and Hitler would deserve a prize at some level... Then it brings me to think that every prize can have its reasons, such as economical and political misusage of prize.

A Reality Show Where Islam Is the Biggest Star

The first thing that came up to my mind was that the author is making an indirect criticism of the show by presenting a picture where the candidates are putting a makeup. It seems like the author is supporting the show by writing how great the show is. However, the flow of the language in the article seems to suggest the similarity with the “American Idol.” By using the image, the similarity seems to be exaggerated, where one may pose a possible question like “why a candidate needs to dress up as if imam is like an idol?”
