Dell Computer is the latest corporate sponsor to pull its ads from the MTV reality show Jersey Shore. Apparently, Dell has pulled its ads for personal computers (PC) because well the show Jersey Shore was not PC (Politically Correct) enough - likely because of all those Guido references.

Jersey Shore is the hit reality TV show that the lives of young Italian Americans on Jersey's Eastern Seaboard.

TMZ is reporting that Dell is the second corporate sponsor to do drop advertisements from Jersey Shore. Recently Dominos Pizza pulled out as well.

"'Dell -- the 3rd sponsor to run from the 'Shore' -- tells us they will "block" their commercials from running in future episodes of the show, claiming they don't 'condone or support ethnic bashing in any form.'"

Jersey Shore was most recently in the news for another incident the sucker punch of a female character named Snookie

One suspects a host of other sponsors are lining up to take the place of Dell, perhaps; the vegetable dicer Slap Chop; Vidal Sassoon Hair Products; and The Ab-Rocker.
