IF MICHAEL IAN BLACK IS BEING PAID, THEN THE INTEGRITY'S GONE: In the wake of the Armstrong Williams and Maggie Gallagher payola scandals, it was only a matter of time before payola stretched to the world of pop culture snark on VH1. The New York Daily News reports today that VH1 has terminated pundit Jonathan Cheban for making an undisclosed plug for Evian during "The Fabulous Life of Cameron Diaz."

VH1--to restore your integrity, it's time to hire some unbought and unbossed pop culture pundit types. Might I suggest that there are some folks around these parts who'd be interested and willing to restore your dignity?
