As Chuck Klosterman writes in his book IV: A Decade of Curious People and Dangerous Minds, the phrase 'guilty pleasure' is culturally backwards. As he can take pride in his watching the Ashley Simpson Show, I can admit to the my audience that I've watched every episode of Jersey Shore. I was born in Boston and raised in Rhode Island; to be truthful, I could field a pretty decent cast for a new season. I must say, for the record, an article in CNN Money made me respect the entrepreneurial spirit of the cast of the Jersey Shore.
