Governor to the state of New Jersey, Chris Christie has vetoed a proposed motion to install a new system of filming incentives within the state. In 2011 Christie similarly halted a USD420,000 tax credit made available for the first season of Jersey Shore, over concerns regarding the controversial content of the show.
Production activity has suffered as productions look elsewhere for a better incentive deal, particularly in the neighbouring state of New York.
