It's Jon Gosselin vs. TLC, Round 312

by Brad Trechak, posted Dec 10th 2009 12:02PM

Jon and Kate Plus 8Granted, I'm making a joke with the "Round 312" thing. It only feels like Round 312. However, the legal fight between Jon Gosselin and TLC, the network that made him famous, is going to a Maryland courtroom. TLC wants Gosselin to stop making media appearances and Gosselin argues that his job as a "media personality" is his sole source of income.

Yes, Jon Gosselin's career is now that of "media personality". While in the courtroom, I sincerely hope that the judge orders a psychological test on Mr. Gosselin to determine his fitness as a parent. Honestly, I don't even know who to side with in this divorce. Both of them seem like unfit parents these days.

For example, if Gosselin didn't want his children to be exploited on television, why star in a reality television show in the first place? Is "media personality" even a career? Can one put the title on a W2 form? Sound off in the comments.

And here I thought we'd heard enough about this wing nut and his loose screw with their 8 spoiled, psychologically bankrupt children.
Someone please give it a rest. If you ignore him, her and the 8, it WILL eventually go away!

Jon + Kate - 8 = Zero, nothing, nil, nada, zilch, bupkis. He has no personality, so how can he call himself a "media personality"? At least Kate is self-deprecating and intelligent, Jon is so one note I wonder if he shouldn't be medicated for depression. Then he could be a "celebrity spokesperson" for a pharmaceutical company!

I guess once you've feasted at the teat of mega-stardom like Jon has, you simply can't go back to being a... what, accountant? Banker? Salesman? Whatever "common" job he had before. Only suckers have real jobs.

"Media Personality." Could he even draw a crowd to a Quizno's opening?
