Think this isn't going to do too much to J* reputation though, he's been known for years to be questionable. Though when Shane did his mini series on him it was like 'oh he's apologised lets move on' when really there was never anything to prove that he had changed aside from him not making it so obvious to his fans/stans. Although I agree that Shane is probably enabling J* and Trish, but so is everyone else in that group.
As for Ashley Kyle being on J* payroll, that says a lot about her and how good she is at being a drama channel. I remember a lot of drama that happened regarding the drama channels and being of J* payroll, I wonder who else was on it?
