Re: ''Jeopardy'' producers pilloried for expecting contestants to give correct responses

I watch Jeopardy regularly and participate in an online trivia league along with the likes of Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter (though I don't think I'll be going head to head with either one any time soon). I've also written some bar trivia here and there. My comment isn't political, it is about crafting good trivia questions and putting on a good television show (and I say that as someone who cowrote a trivia round once where despite multiple reviews, only once answers came in, did we realize we had a significant problem in how our question was worded and our ultimate judgement on how to score it was going to create controversy no matter what we did). This question doesn't make the cut because of the ambiguities surrounding the answer. It has nothing to do with whether the State of Palestine exists.
