Jersey War

1. It's been reported that the cast of the Jersey Shore is on strike after allegedly being very dissatisfied with their recent contracts. The cast says they refuse to shoot any more scenes until they get a better deal. MTV finally caved today and granted them the free, unlimited VD tests they requested.

2. Keith Olbermann announced Friday that he will be taking a two week vacation in the wake of a feud with right wing pundit Tucker Carlson. Olbermann did not state whether the vacation was related to the feud but witnesses say Carlson Friday set a two week alarm on his Re-Douche-ination Stasis Chamber.

3. An episode of MTV's The Dudesons, about four friends who perform outrageous stunts, has been pulled from the network for its offensive nature toward Native American culture. Many music artists voiced concerns that their music may have backed some of this offensive video, but MTV assured them none of their programming is ever in danger of being involved with music.

4. On Monday, Rep. Michelle Bachmann announced that her request to form an official congressional Tea Party caucus has been approved by the Committee on House Administration. Bachmann says the caucus will stand for fiscal responsibility, adherence to the Constitution, and of course giving a voice to the other voices in a teabagger's head.

5. In an interview with People, Spencer Pratt said that he and his wife Heidi Montag split because he chose fame over her. "We love each other but I'm a famewhore and I'll never grow out of it," said Pratt. Unfortunately for Pratt, his fame will someday expire, and most of Heidi's body never will.

High five.
