Recent survey on the Eurovision Song Contest carried out in Denmark shows that the viewers in the country have grown very disappointed with the competition, DR announced.
The objects of criticism are the voting system and the national commentators. The voting system is regarded as being corrupt as it allows for biased favour voting. The countries from Eastern Europe have been pointed as to have benefited from this system. There is no mention, however, of how exactly the system allows for favour voting, or voting by expatriates and gastarbeiters.
Such criticism is not an isolated case. According to reports, most viewers in Western Europe, or the Old ESC competitors, have already lost interest in the contest and have turned watching it into a butt of ridicule. The New ESC countries show more and more concern with the competition, which naturally results in more active voters.
Anyway, we can't wait to see the Danish answer with next-year's participation.
