Penn To The Pen?


According to TMZ, Sean Penn has been charged with battery and vandalism and could potentially be facing a 1 1/2 year jail sentence for assaulting a paparazzo and breaking his camera.  If my instincts are on par, TMZ will have to retract this story and post an immediate apology and correction for fear of a lawsuit for defaming this great man's reputation.  I mean, seriously, who is TMZ anyway?  There not exactly known for esteemed and accurate reporting.  They're like the National Enquirer - all rumors and no substance.

What's that you say?  TMZ was first to report Michael Jackson's death and the National Enquirer broke the John Edwards baby scandal?  Whatever. 

My real point is that Sean Penn is an amazing actor, philanthropist, humanitarian, and all around good-guy who brings meaning to many folks lives through his transcendent acting (I dare you to find a character more poignant and inspirational than Jeff Spicoli). 

What? They have a video?  Shit.

Alright. Fine.  The guy's a total asshole.  As a side note, I've seen more power behind a kick from a beached sea turtle (not the adolescent ninja kind either).
