Rejected petition Remove the X Factor from our tv screens as I for one have had enough of it.
More details
I would like The X Factor tv show to be removed from our screens. I don't like talking about it, seeing it on my facebook or taking up hours of television space. So that other more deserving shows might get a chance. It gives people false hope of a singing career when they cannot sing and has got to stop. The only winner is Simon Cowell and even he doesn't want to be on it anymore. Bring back 3-2-1, or the Price is Right. Something! Anything even YouBet, I liked that. Not this rubbish please do what you need to do. You know it makes sense.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not responsible for.
Responsibility for what is broadcast on television and radio rests with the broadcasters and the organisations which regulate broadcasting - the Office of Communications (OFCOM), the BBC Trust and the Welsh Fourth Channel Authority (S4C). They are independent of the Government.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
