STUFF ~
Victor Jung, a
former treasurer at NBC Universal has been arrested on fraud charges for
allegedly setting up a false company – NBCU Media Productions LLC - in 2005 as a
front to steal more than $800,000 from the company. Jung has pleaded
innocent, and has been released on bond. He allegedly used nearly $400,000 of
the stolen funds for private jets to Miami, Antigua and the Turks and Caicos
Islands. Other funds were allegedly used to wine and dine Jung and his
companions in high style, pay for his rental house in the Hamptons and to pay
off charges on his personal American Express Card. If convicted, Jung faces up
to 20 years of prison and hefty fines. The FX series The Riches starring Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver has been scheduled to premiere on March 12 at 10p. The network has ordered 13 episodes. The story begins as two thieving gypsies are on the run with their children, and after stealing someone's identity, attempt to live "normal" and decidedly upscale lives in Louisiana. As with other FX original series, The Riches will air in limited commercial format with a single sponsor - the upcoming Weinstein Company/Dimension Films theatrical release Grindhouse.
