MTV needs to hire a better spin doctor.

You knew there was going to be a little blow back from the whole Snooki selling underage kids booze and them letting them drive home and get smeared all over the highway thing. eonline spoke to MTV and here's what they had to say for how the network feels about it:

"Snooki was 16 when she was charged," an MTV rep told E! News. "She fulfilled her community service and her record was ultimately cleared."

According to the spokesman, the channel was "not aware of this incident because it occurred while Nicole was a minor" and the case was sealed.

"Snooki is a part of season two," the rep stated.

And in case you were wondering whether the show promotes drinking of any kind, the MTV-bot had this to say: "The intent of [Jersey Shore] is to document the lives of eight young adults."

It's a documentry, holy sh*t MTV IS THE NEW PBS!!!

...I gave my pledge, now where's my blow job and tote bag?
