X Factor is a singing contest, not a sympathy contest

X Factor is a singing contest, not a sympathy contest Former Bluecoat Scott Bruton says he is not bitter about losing to widower Daniel Evans, who dedicated his song to his wife in the X Factor sing-off.
But we wonder about another victory going to another contestant with a sob story.
Of course, single dad Daniel deserves sympathy for losing his wife. It is a tragedy.
But he does not deserve the judges' votes because of it.
The X Factor is a singing contest... not a sympathy contest.
We cannot have victory going to whoever is the most tragic figure who can hold a tune.
