‘Idol’ amusement

Re “With Davids, ‘Idol’ still Goliath,” May 22

It appears that the transformation of The Times from a respected newspaper to a daily version of People magazine is almost complete. Not only is the report of who won “American Idol” considered news, it is considered news that is worthy of front-page exposure. I guess the only surprise is that this “news” was below the fold.
