Jon Gosselin's gravy train derailed.

In a shockingly non-Tiger story, TLC is not backing down and has effectively shut down Jon Gosselin's cash cow.  They don't like Jon violating his contract to make a crap load of money.  MSNBC.com reports:

A Maryland judge is ruling in the dispute between Jon Gosselin and the TLC network that the father must stop making media appearances that are at odds with his contract.


Montgomery County Circuit Judge Michael D. Mason ruled Thursday following a one-day hearing.

TLC Chief Operating Officer Edward Sabin testified that Gosselin made unauthorized appearances and endorsements. In particular, he mentioned a pool party that Gosselin hosted at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas. Sabin says photos from the event were at odds with the wholesome image of the show, "Jon & Kate Plus 8."

Although I think the phrase "wholesome" may be debatable, one has to think.  What will Jon do now to make money off of children...Hey!  Octomom!  Still available????

TLC made Kate Gosselin's kids cry.

Barbara Walters interviewed Kate Gosselin and it was very heartwarming. Kate says that the children have been crying since the cameras and crews left after the loss of the show. I suppose I can understand that they have been around forever. Maybe I'm a bit cynical but I think what she meant to say was that she and John have been crying now that the cash fountain has come to an end. Nice job with the self destruct job guys. I'm sure they'll be ok though. They may be divorced but they'll find another way exploit their kids. I have faith.

TLC is damaging John Gosselin's reputation???

John Gosselin is suing TLC for a cool 5 million. He claims that TLC has damaged his reputation and hurt his financial income by not allowing him to work on other projects. Gosselin claims that anyone he tries to deal with is warded off by TLC. Please keep it in mind that TLC was already suing him first for breach of contract. Hell, they want 175K from him! Now I can certainly understand the loss of income bit, John knows that wheels and bimbos cost mucho dinero but damaged his reputation? Give me a break! I didn,t even know he still had a reputation to ruin. This dude could become a armed robber and it would only improve his reputation.
