Now that it's no longer just gossip but truth:

Corey Clark yanked from "American Idol"

Fox yanks singer from finals; he did not disclose arrest

April 1 --  What do American Idol contestant Corey Clark and war correspondent Peter Arnett have in common? Both got whacked by their networks yesterday. Fox yanked Clark after learning from Web site the Smoking Gun that he is due in court this month for allegedly assaulting his teenage sister and then resisting arrest....

This is the story from CNN's Web site, too.

Hi Bastable, we have been talking about Corey Clark at length in the "Miscellaneous Gossip" thread.

The article goes on to say:

The network has no plans to replace Clark with another contestant and said that “at this time, no decision has been made as to how this will impact this week’s shows.”

It was just on our local news that he was booted and it also said that there was a scheduling change for Wednesday night, they are adding a half hour and pre-empting West Wing. I wonder why?

Um, AI is on Fox and West Wing is on NBC. How does one effect the other? Or did I miss something?

Ok, I screwed up, I don't know why I said West Wing, I checked the listings and the show that it would be pre-empting is Bernie Mac, I could have sworn she said West wing. Oh well, I still wonder why the extra half hour.

Ok, I did hear it right, Max. I just checked the evening newspaper and West Wing is pre-empted because of AI. We can see AI on ATV or Fox. I was watching ATV News when I heard that Corey was gone and West Wing was pre-empted. After your post I checked the TV Guide and looked under Fox first and saw Bernie Mac. I thought I had lost my mind. Nice to know that I found it, as useless as it can be sometimes
