FOX, what are you doing to us?

9:20 We’re back. Ford Commercial: “Happy Together”…The Idols morph into each other as the cars morph into different ones…Not sure what to say about that one…Idol Gives Back plug…Ryan actually asks if we’ve heard of it…News Corp. (which owns FOX) has pledged $5 million…Ryan says the “Idol Gives Back” show will show us Simon’s heart…A video showing Simon showing off the classroom in a box that our money can buy for the kids in Africa…He pretends to be rude to the little African girl who drew a picture of him with a chest…

9:23 Simon says they were sweet kids…Ryan asks Simon if he would get on the stage and sing if they raised $20 million. He says no…

9:24 Ryan says the editors have been playing with audition footage…We see a tape of the judges trashing Tony Bennett…Is this really necessary?!

9:25 Ryan begs corporate America again…After the break…
