Here’s what’s happening today in pop culture:
• Olympic snowboarder Shaun White, "The Flying Tomato," was arrested for vandalism and public intoxication after a Sunday morning incident at a Nashville hotel. [Washington Post]
• A plea from ace publicist (and Sundance friend of The Cricket) Jeremy Walker, in regards to "Innocence of Muslims": "Please stop calling this thing a film or a movie." [The Wrap]
• An aspiring stand-up comedian pranked the folks at "Fox and Friends," getting airtime by posing as a disillusioned Barack Obama supporter who’s now voting for Mitt Romney. He says he did it to make the "fake news organization" look "stupid." [The Hollywood Reporter]
