ETA: Reading through the posts I am stunned by how many people are attributing the boos Sylvia and Alexandra got to racism. you dont' think it cold be the obnoxious things they said in their videos? i am certainly not racist, in fact I am part black, but they both came off really snobby to me. Sylvia less so - in fact her life story sounds really compelling - but the parts where she gloats about how people are jealous they don't look as good as her is where she went wrong.
I definitely think it is a mix of sexism and Charley hangover. Out of all the videos, the one with the most vile things to say was Dale and he got cheers, so at the very least there is the major sexism (which we all know by looking at the winners of the show) and every single girl who gets on the show in their video says how great they look, unless you are Laura. Stephenie said how great she was, how beautiful she was and only got a bit of boos. Sylvia says one thing about dressing trendy and she gets flat out 95% booed? I dont know what other reason it could be, because her video was one of the best of the females in terms of having something of substance to say.

didn't see the first Daily show posted anywhere yet.
