2008-06-05 13:56:00 Page Six bites the hand that feeds it in: Was dethroned Philadelphia newsgal Alycia Lane the target of a diabolical plot by her former co-anchor to destroy her career? That bizarre scenario seems possible, say pals of the dark-haired beauty. It's popped up now that Emmy-winner Larry Mendte of CBS affiliate KYW-TV has been booted off the air because of an FBI probe. Last month, the feds seized Mendte's computer to determine if he was the person who hacked into Lane's private e-mail hundreds of times, then anonymously dished gossip to Page Six and Philadelphia media via an untraceable e-mail account, sources told us. "Larry has been jealous of Alycia's success since she brought the ratings from third place to first. She got all the credit and his ego couldn't handle it," a TV insider said. "Larry worked hard to take Alycia down . . . Now he'll get what he deserves. Sure, this is a competitive industry filled with big egos, but [this] is downright creepy." Creepy enough to get NB...

Hot Scott
2008-05-29 13:49:00 The "get" of the moment Scott McClellan on the "Today" show this a.m with his book #1 on Amazon.There are several kinds of Washington memoirs: ?I Reveal the Honest Truth,? a kiss-up-and-tell designed to settle scores (nod to honesty optional). ?I Was There at the Start,? designed to make the author appear to be the linchpin of history. And, most tedious: ?I Knew It Was a Terrible Mistake, but I Didn?t Mention It Until I Got a Book Contract.? NY Times editorial"...McClellan is an exceptionally nice guy." NYP McClellan's book contrasts sharply with his spin before the jaded WH press corps when he was on Bush's watch. Wash Post ABC News "An affable Texan, McClellan was extremely well-liked by White House press corps regulars and was accessible off-camera. But he never earned a reputation for being particularly helpful or pushing for more information. "I didn't ask about that" was a phrase reporters heard regularly." Thomas DeFrank NYDN

Bush veered terribly off course." "Scott McClellan Blames The Liberal Press Corps For Eating Up Bush's (His?) Drivel Too Easily" JossipTim Russert and Mike Barnicle blabbing McClellan's "how the [Iraq] war was a marketing campaign."

Huff Post vid "Star's a great talent and she's suffering now."Overlooked in all the Babs book hype, how tough it was for her to succeed in the male-dominated TV news biz. I saw Tim Russert scratching the surface in a Babs interview last weekend. It's worth reading the Vanity Fair excerpt of "Audition." The Ted Baxter of ABC News, Harry Reasoner, was an a-hole from the get go. "The blood was so bad between us, however, that Harry?s cronies on the crew took to using a stopwatch to note my airtime. If I did a segment that ran three minutes and twenty-five seconds, Harry would demand that he do a piece three minutes and twenty-five seconds long. Harry?s hostility soon began to show on the air. I remember reaching toward him at the end of one broadcast, in a friendly manner, just to touch him on the arm. He recoiled, physically recoiled, in front of millions of people. The media picked up on the bad chemistry....

2008-03-07 16:22:00 Internecine warfare at the $15 billion dollar Mike Bloomberg media empire where there's a salary freeze on those raking in over $200,000. Bloomberg employees 10,000 people in 125 worldwide cities. The NYP quotes an "insider" blabbing that sales and a quarter of editorial are bringing it on home. A new conference room, just constructed for Editor-in-Chief Matt Winkler, who is also a corporate board member, is also rubbing people the wrong way. While they're freezing salaries, they went ahead and expanded, by about half, the square footage of Winkler's personal conference room and office, and added new Italian furniture and lighting. The total cost: upward of $50,000. "It's good to be king," sniped an insider. One insider who wasn't in the $200,000-a-year bracket thought chopping the upper-salaried people was a great idea. "I haven't seen there is a freeze yet, but if there is one at the top, I'd applaud that and consider that equitable," the insider said. "Usually, in tough ti...

Heather Mills-McCartney : Hell Hath no Fury Like a Woman Short Changed
2007-11-06 15:57:00 No doubt there is truth to some of Heather Mills-McCartney's claims that the media has been excessively harsh in its treatment of her in the course of a very public divorce-from-hell. I don't doubt that in private Paul McCartney may not always behave like the charming scouse he puts out in public. But Heather's main problem is well ... Heather.By and large people tend to be cynical about self-proclaimed victims who grandstand on the media, especially when the victim-in-question stands to pocket a settlement in the millions. The fact that Heather is blonde and a former "glamour model" ( a euphemism for a variety of activities) shouldn't be held against her, but she invites negative attention by sounding off like a chronically self-absorbed neurotic with a persecution complex.When Heather appeared on British GMTV with Fiona Phillips, she came armed with a large scrapbook that contained newspaper clippings - "evidence" no less of "18 months of abuse in some 4,400 abusive article...
