Anna Gristina
At the 'Daily News,' two court reporters are let go
If their exit is a sign of a larger realignment at the paper under its new editor, Colin Myler, who replaced outgoing editor Kevin Convey at the beginning of the year, then it is a very slow-moving realignment. More
(1)Tale of the tape: 'Observer' won't retract story about 'Post' editor Col Allan and soccer-mom madam Anna Gristina
“My attorneys are today filing a formal demand of retraction from the Observer and its publisher," Allan said in a report the paper posted on its website late this afternoon. “The Observer’s report is nothing but a smear and a lie.”
But it dosen't look like Allan is going to get what he wants.
"It doesn't make much sense to retract," Observer editor Elizabeth Spiers told Capital.
At the center of the matter are transcripts of interviews and surveillance audio amassed by law enforcement during the five-year investigation of Gristina's alleged prostitution ring. More
(4)Beating tabloids again, DNAinfo reports investigation into soccer-mom madam Anna Gristina led to ... John Edwards
DNAinfo's Murray Weiss reports that the investigation into alleged soccer-mom madam Anna Gristina led to at least one big-name john. John Edwards, in fact.
After a splashy call-girl service gets busted, the story tends to get loaded down with pretrial motions and weird particulars; to keep things going, the battling tabloids grasp at anything remotely connected to the case to keep the story interesting. But all the while, they've got their eyes on the gold: Were any of the madam's clients famous? More

After beating both tabloids to the tale of Madam Gristina, DNAinfo has the 'News' and 'Post' in a sweat
DNAinfo's 30-person staff includes half a dozen refugees from the tabloids, said de Kretser, including Weiss, who stunned media watchers when he suddenly left the Post after 25 years in June of 2010 only to resurface at a curiously named website that no one had heard of.
De Kretser herself is a former Post staffer, and recently nabbed another veteran of her erstwhile employer, William Gorta, to join her growing stable of web journalists.
Gorta's final week at the Post is turning out to be an eventful one: A scene of "consternation" in the newsroom yesterday was described to Capital by people familiar with the situation. More
