MTV Pulls "Jersey Shore" Punch Clip

Yesterday I saw parts of a show that has gained quite the buzz, MTV's Jersey Shore. For those who haven't seen it, it's basically The Real World with a bunch of stereotypical Italian-American kids from the New Jersey. Everyone has a nickname including my personal favorite Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino.

Amidst controversy over the bad stereotypes, the preview for the next episode of the show featured a closed-fist punch by a male to the face of female cast memeber Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi. It appeared as if she was getting into a verbal altercation with some guy at a bar and the next thing you know dude hits her with a right cross right in the mush! Additional footage was shown of her facedown on the floor and the cops arresting the guy. It was pretty bad.

MTV apparently thought so as well. They've removed the clip from the show entirely.
