Jersey Shore under investigation for labor law violations
by Danny Gallagher, posted Dec 26th 2009 11:02PM
It seems that Sen. Joseph Vitale's efforts to get Jersey Shore kicked off the air go far beyond some wimpy boycotts. He has officially, as Monty Burns would say, "released the hounds" minus, of course, any actual hounds...yet. The New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development has launched an investigation into the show's employment and wage practices at Vitale's request. This news comes on the same day that Vitale publicly declared his disdain for the show and wished that MTV would cancel it.
Even if you're not a fan of the show, you have to admit this feels a little over the line. Whadayathinkaboutit?
