Lil Red Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 If you haven't heard about the controversy surrounding Jason Biggs (voice of the newest version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on Nick), [url="http://twitchy.com/2012/09/01/the-wit-and-wisdom-of-nickelodeons-jason-biggs/"]start here and read[/url] ([color=red]warning, explicit language & pictures[/color]). Nickelodeon, so far, as said that they've asked Mr. Biggs to use more discretion...but [url="http://twitchy.com/2012/09/01/nickelodeon-now-promoting-jason-biggs-twitter-handle-in-promotions/"]they were promoting[/url] his twitter feed to children (go back and look at what he posted again and tell me if it's okay that his twitter feed is being promoted to kids). They, so far, haven't said whether he would be fired, but what do you think? Should he be fired, or just reprimanded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhuturePriest Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Um... he should be fired, and Nickelodeon should be sued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FutureCarmeliteClaire Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Holy croutons. I couldn't even bring myself to read the rest. It's bad, really bad. I don't think they should be reccomending his twitter page to kids, but it is HIS twitter page, and has nothing to do with the show he voices for. I think he should be reprimanded.

4588686 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Hmmm...upon carefully investigating this issue a more serious question arises. Do you think his sister is single? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm not the only one just totally confused by this. I really don't get it. He's not famous. Why are the directing kids to their voice actors? I mean, I agree that his twitter feed is totally inappropriate for kids, but the person who should be fired is whoever thought this was a good idea in the first place.

Winchester Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 The fact the Nickelodeon hired him in the first place should tell us what the channel is about. He's not a star of kid movies. He's in movies where his character obtains carnal knowledge of pie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty surprised at the content of many of the Twitter Feeds Nickelodeon is promoting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
