That New York Post chimp cartoon: what were they thinking?
2009-03-03 23:25:00
By Jefferson Flanders What were the editors of the New York Post thinking when they published that now infamous cartoon by Sean Delonas, a cartoon that could be construed (in the words of Foon Rhee of the Boston Globe) to “tie President Obama to a rampaging chimpanzee killed by police,” and therefore be considered racist. The ...

NYT: Kool And The Gang Bang
2008-04-25 15:36:00
Not enough NYT journos are drinking the Kool-Aid. So to persuade the reluctant, this media leak: "The New York Times' news room is bracing for a bloodbath in the next 10 days. The word from inside is that approximately 50 unionized journalists have accepted the buyout proposal, and only another 20 non-union editorial employees have gotten on board. That means the ax could fall on as many as 30 editorial people in the company's first-ever mass firing of journalists in its 156-year history." Keith J. Kelly NYP

Olbermann's Big Flack Attack
2008-04-24 13:42:00
Consider the source: Rupert's NYP Page Six. MSNBC talking head Keith Olbermann isn't just a blowhard, he's a hypocrite. After USA Today columnist Lorrie Lynch criticized CNBC anchor Erin Burnett for refusing to do an interview without her flack present, Olbermann named Lynch the "Worst Person in the World" on his nightly show, stating that all public figures are interviewed with "press handlers." Responding this week on her daily "Who's News" blog, Lynch points out that in 2005, Olbermann himself gave her "a lovely interview that was completely handler-free." Lynch told Page Six, "I sent Keith an e-mail to thank him for the mention; I haven't heard back."

2008-03-23 16:01:00
The New York Post always gives good headlines - and the cream of the crop is feted in a new book, "Headless Body in Topless Bar," out next month from Harper Entertainment. [Actually March 25 at Amazon] Among them: "Kiss Your Asteroid Goodbye" (a runaway star possibly hitting the Earth); "Jiggle All the Way" (husbands giving their wives boob jobs for Christmas); "Bimbo Summit" (Lindsay, Paris and Britney partying together) "Good Noose" (Saddam Hussen sentenced to hang); "Wacko Jacko Backo" (a Michael Jackson comeback); and "Bite of the Century" (Mike Tyson chewing off part of Evander Holyfield's ear.) The famed title headline, written by VA Musetto, who's now The Post's film editor, concerned a Queens strip club where the bartender was shot dead and his head cut off. (The killer didn't want to leave the embedded bullet behind.) Top Post headline honcho Barry Gross notes in the book's preface: "We're a brash, kick-ass tabloid, and the headlines reflect that."

Theory of relativity. A "Today" show flack is downplaying Mariah Carey's reneging on a Rockefeller Center outdoor concert appearance for an appearance on rival "Good Morning America". Music-industry insiders and network sources say NBC is furious with Mariah Carey, her manager Benny Medina and her reps at Def Jam, because they promised Carey would perform on "Today" to promote her new album, "E=MC2" - but instead she's going on archrival ABC's "Good Morning America."

Variety David Simone's Deston Songs notable hit: "Who Let The Dogs Out? PR NewswireThe breakfast crowd at the Hotel Plaza Athenee was treated to a dramatic scene yesterday. Two women and a man at one of the tables were gossiping about Shelley Ross, who was fired as executive producer of CBS's "The Early Show" on Thursday. After trading some stories about the autocratic exec, the blonder of the women said, "We shouldn't be talking this way. You never know who could be listening." For sure! Just moments later, a witness tells Page Six, a tall British man sitting nearby stood up and introduced himself: "I'm Shelley Ross' husband."

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...
