'West Wing' Creator Sorkin Arrested on Drug Charge


LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Aaron Sorkin, the Emmy-winning creator and executive producer of NBC's ``The West Wing,'' was arrested on a drug possession charge on Sunday at Burbank Airport, authorities said on Monday.

Sorkin, 40, was taken into custody by airport police after security personnel found a quantity of hallucinogenic mushrooms in his carry-on baggage, airport spokesman Victor Gill said.

The Web site of broadcast trade publication Electronic Media, which revealed the incident, said Sorkin was attempting to catch a Southwest Airlines flight from Burbank to Las Vegas when he was arrested.

Airport spokesman Gill said Sorkin was booked on a charge of possession of a controlled substance and released three hours later on his own recognizance after a $10,000 bail bond was posted.

Sorkin's publicist issued a brief statement confirming that the producer had been arrested for alleged drug possession on Sunday at Burbank Airport, in the Los Angeles suburb of Burbank, and was released on bail.

``I am glad to be surrounded by such a supportive group of people and am prepared to proceed as directed by my attorney and in the best interest of my family,'' Sorkin said in the statement.

Sorkin is scheduled to be arraigned April 30, Gill said.

According to Electronic Media, Sorkin signed a four-year, $16 million development deal at Warner Bros. Television in July.

Sorkin is the creator and an executive-producer of ``The West Wing,'' the NBC White House drama now in its second season that won an Emmy Award in September for best drama series. He also shared an Emmy for writing on the show.




Anxiously awaiting more details on American Psycho II, I hope it works.

I think if you write as brilliantly as Aaron Sorkin, you should be legally permitted to do shrooms... It should be the 27th Ammendment...
