According to the host of Tampa’s MJ Morning Radio Show, Jon Gosselin’s reps contacted his producers, offering to have Jon guest co-host the show for a small fee of $12,000 per hour.

The rep pushed Jon’s appearance by telling producers,

[Jon's] name and appearance on your show will instantly draw press … and will be a high point for the show. [He is] quite funny, sharp witted and interesting.

After having a good laugh over the offer, the show’s producers turned it down.
