Quiz Show Rigging Obvious to Everyone Except the Host

The admission by game show guru István Vágó that he's been rigging the results of Hungary's version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" produced some shocked readers, Blikk announced. Even more shocking: just about everyone knew this, and many consider Vágó to be a douche. Gábor Cserei, one of the few to win the grand prize of Ft 40 million (currently $250,000 or "Who Wants to be a Quarter-Millionaire?"), said that it was quite apparent as he sat waiting for his turn that Vágó was manipulating the results. Of the people accosted on the street for their opinions, (one of whom seemed to have slipped the rag their modeling shot), 5 out of 8 said it was obvious, and 2 said they weren't surprised, one of whom added that he finds the host unbearable.

The only man who stood up for Vágó? The one guy on the street Blikk found that actually knows him, and goes for the Bible-sourcing thought of "let he cast the first stone who has never been nicer to some than to others." Yeah, Vágó's buddy actually said that. Unlike the result after the infamous lies speech leaked, however, Vágó's admission of bullshitting the public did not result in the sacking of the RTL Klub studios after the station had gone off the air.
