I have never watched the show - just hear the stories about it. I was shocked to find out that they pre-interview the people and decide who will get in front of Simon and company. I assumed they took as many as possible who were in line. I didn't realize they turned some away and push some through just to let them humilate themselves for the ratings. To do it to people with obvious challenges crosses the line.
"but to me, it's just part of a process that I really enjoy. By the time we get to the top 10, I feel like I've been part of the journey for these kids."
