Late night open thread

An Italian American organization located here in the Garden State wants MTV to pull the plug on a new beach house themed show called "Jersey Shore" that advertises the renters as the "hottest, tannest, craziest Guidos". UNICO National said the show relies on crude stereotypes of swearing, bad behavior and violence to depict Italian Americans in a bad light.

Look, we understand taking offense at the 'Guidos' comment (and in the shore towns the correct term we believe is BENNY) but thinking that foul language, fighting and bad behavior are strictly Italian traits tells us UNICO National needs to get out of the shoe box with holes they live in.

Time for Jersey City, After Dark
