Members dragonflies Posted August 7, 2008 Members Share Posted August 7, 2008 So if it's true was she fired from her post as editor of SOW/SOD or fired from NY Daily News for the column she does for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted August 7, 2008 Members Share Posted August 7, 2008 I'm not sure yet. I know she was fired as editor for Weekly. Not sure if she'll still do her Daily News or "Only My Opinion" column for Digest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted August 7, 2008 Members Share Posted August 7, 2008 I'm guessing this is where the information came from, maybe? http://www.jossip.com/soap-opera-weekly-ed...fired-20080807/ Breaking: Carolyn Hinsey, editor of Soap Opera Weekly, was just fired, we’re told. Hinsey is described to us as “a truly malicious, horrible human being.” If true, then more of you must have stories! Update: “Budgetary” reasons is one excuse being thrown around, which would mean SOW would have to replace Hinsey with somebody less experienced (read: cheaper) for that to pan out. Other possibilities for her removal? Numerous HR problems and complaints about Hinsey, who’s said to be “a yeller and screamer” and a “bully.” “Anger management classes were mentioned several years ago,” says one well-informed source.

Members dragonflies Posted August 7, 2008 Members Share Posted August 7, 2008 Yeah I have NEVER read anything good about Hinsey, even from people who have met her in person at Blondie's. Thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted August 7, 2008 Members Share Posted August 7, 2008 I can't stand Hinsey, but doesn't Thorsten Kaye absolutely love her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted August 7, 2008 Members Share Posted August 7, 2008 I want the SOD/SOW site to confirm this so I don't have to "eat" my smirk later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MarkH Posted August 7, 2008 Members Share Posted August 7, 2008 I get why you say this, given the Disney-love she often shows. BUT, Soapnet ain't exactly flourishing. And what about Coleridge? And even if they do hire her, remember Torchin? This would not be a long-term job. ALSO, Hinsey is not built for the online era. She only reluctantly started her blog recently, and when there are news-interruptions of her soaps, she still harps that fans "can't catch" their episodes. When Nuke was not publicized, she harped that fans were screwed, because it didn't even run on Soapnet. What about cbs.com???? Or fancast or MSN TV??? I don't see a place for her at the new Soapnet, but what do I know? The soap mags will be gone soon anyway, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jcar03 Posted August 7, 2008 Members Share Posted August 7, 2008 I doubt they will make a big statement on SOD/SOW website. I don't see her blog with the other editors blog over there either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted August 7, 2008 Members Share Posted August 7, 2008 Yeah I don't see them making a big deal out of it on the website. Honestly yeah she is entitled to her opinion, but I thought she should have been fired long ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
