Members detroitpiston Posted August 9, 2008 Members Share Posted August 9, 2008 I wonder whats gonna happen to some of these people who still work at SOD/SOW and are spilling this stuff. One of them already said Lynn Leheay was trying to figure out who they were. And who's gonna replace Carolyn? Or a better question, who do you want to replace Carolyn?

Members Contessa Donatella Posted August 9, 2008 Members Share Posted August 9, 2008 Uh, the ringtone on my cellphone? Seriously, I am always confused to hear Donna used on the TV, but Anna Stuart got me used to it eventually, day after day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Even though that thread has turned predictably ugly. (What started out as a good deal of justifiable vindication for years of oppression has turned into an online version of Jerry Springer) I can't help but be grateful for the light it has shed on some of the factors that over the recent years, clearly accelerated the death of daytime. Assuming 50% of everything being said is a lie, the other half - say for instance Hinsey's Blondie's scam - is a dirty, rotten shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Well, I think that the decline of daytime began before there were just 3 soap mags, and while a larger number of soap mags were still thriving. Once you get into the shrinking world of daytime, then problems become manifest & feed into each other. I hate the mixture of truth & falsehood in something that will undoubtedly have a certain amount of 'street cred'. In June 1999 we used Blondie's for an AW Fan Reunion & it was chosen for location & price & space - although in the final analysis it's not really a good space. But, NYC venues are expensive, so less expensive still makes it somewhat appealing. Anyway at that time I don't believe that Hinsey had bought into a part of it. We had that Fan Reunion the next June, too, in 2000. I don't know when it was that she bought into Blondie's. I thought it was potentially a huge conflict of interest. I thought the same about her column in the NY Daily News. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was potentially a huge conflict of interest. I thought the same about her column in the NY Daily News. Why was NYDN a conflict of interest? Lots of reporters/columnists have multiple columns. I never saw her promote SOD/SOW in NYDN, or vice versa. That said, I am wondering if the rumors that she ALSO lost NYDN are true? If that is the case, what COULD she have done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Dude, have you read the Jossip thread lol. Those people are claiming she's done some disgusting and hateful things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Oh, I have read it twice :-). What I'm trying to figure out is why the NYDN column was a conflict of interest because she was at SOD/SOW. Sorry if this is obvious, but I don't see the inherent conflict. On the other hand, with all the column mentions Blondie's got...THERE I see the conflict loud and clear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Sorry Mark, I misread your post lol. I do agree though, NYDN column wasn't a conflict of interest. It's not like the two(SOD/Weekly and NYD) were competing with each other. And LMAO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Well, as I said, it could potentially be a conflict of interest, when your primary employment is as the Editor of a soap mag & you cover events & shows & do interviews for that entity & then if you scoop your own mag with info that will go to print in the weekly newspaper column first. If you see what I mean, ... potentially ... So, the fact that many reporters/columnists do so, is not really the same thing as full-time job & job on the side, in addition, nor is it the same thing with an Editor position. I have no idea her status at the NY Daily News, but one thing that sometimes happens is that people have burned too many bridges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 If you don't understand the potential conflict of interest I was speaking of now that I have replied, please let me know. Perhaps I can be more clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
