The Daily Mail wrote their own article 
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-12348805/Jennifer-Aniston-comforted-ex-Justin-Theroux-daily-phone-calls-continues-grapple-death-father-Days-Lives-star-John-Aniston.html

The NY Post item says their source was the Daily Mail.
The Post took what the Daily Mail said, distorted it, and made it into their own clickbait story which isn't what the original said.

A fact (which the articles don't mention):
Back on February 12, Jennifer posted on instagram that it was her birthday, and posted a photo of her parents.  Stephen Nichols posted a comment onto that IG post.  He said
"Happy Birthday, Jennifer. Just prepping a Days script which honors your dad, airing in August.

So obviously Jennifer has known about the tribute for months.

You made a good point about her having a PR staff. 
It's possible that she might not read the replies to to her social media.  Some celebs pay their staff to do that. 
So although what SN said about them working on the script in February is likely true, it doesn't mean that she read what he said.

Tomorrow, Janet Spellman-Drucker begins her stint as just the fourth woman in 58 years to be an Executive Producer on "Days of Our Lives."

Betty Corday, the widow of "Days of Our Lives" co-creator Ted Corday, took over as Executive Producer of the show when her husband passed away in July 1966. Betty helped keep her husband's name in the credits, always being billed as Mrs. Ted Corday, until her death in November 1987.

Shelley Curtis was Supervising Executive Producer at "Days" from March 1989 to December 1989, during Al Rabin's brief departure from the show. She remained with "Days" as a Supervising Producer and director until 1991 She was most recently a director at "The Bold and the Beautiful" in 2020.

Lisa De Cazotte was Co-Executive Producer at "Days" from January 2012 to July 2015. She had been the long-time Executive Producer of "Passions" and, after leaving "Days" was a Supervising Producer at "The Young and the Restless." She passed away in December 2019.

Janet Spellman-Drucker joined "Days" in 1984 as a production associate and was named Co-Executive Producer on August 4, 2023.

    • Ok, I know nothing about Another World except their catchy intro song from long ago, but this makes me want to catch!  That crazy mother keeping her son's girlfriend or wife hostage, wow! 
    • And maybe Hotel could have been placed at 9pm Tues instead of Paper Dolls. Not that I thing it was a surefire thing but at least viewers were familiar with the show and it might have done better than PD. ABC's line up was pretty threadbare at that point. And with a big guest star to launch the season - Elizabeth Taylor- the numbers would have been there initially.
    • Any fan of RuPaul would dispute calling any of these examples “drag”. A costume?, A disguise?, A lame attempt at humor? -- yes -- Drag? -- nope
    • No asterisk. I meant that the circumstances during the first year were in her favor.
    • Maybe I am misunderstanding you? Are you suggesting that her success at GL should have an asterisk next to it because she was smart enough to exploit a weakness in the marketplace to gain ratings?  Note: Try not to take this personally—I’m not accusing anyone of being consciously misogynistic. I’m simply proposing that the origins of certain ideas about Ms. Phelps—such as claims that she was unprepared or a poor manager of her writing staff—may be rooted in misogyny. Perhaps, with the benefit of hindsight, it's worth reconsidering those opinions. At the very least, imagine being one of the few women in the room while a male network executive tries to decide what women want to watch during the day. That context has certainly led me to reassess many of my own long-held views.
    • Through 78 and 79 under Marland and Pat Falken smith GH was still heavily hospital based with a mix of storylines. The Doctors would have been fine had they followed that template. Once GH went with Ice Princess all bets were off.Who knows how much TD would have copied that direction? And OLTL, DOOL went in that direction quite heavily while other shows dabbled in far out stories. The thing is that TD was well set up for an expansion.
    • Thank you

    • Aaron Spelling still had clout with ABC in Fall 1984, as I think they knew he was going to pull out all the stops for Dynasty to get to #1, which he did. That's probably why ABC kept Hotel as Dynasty lead out. Fall 1985 with the sale to Capital Cities and Brandon Stoddard arrival, Aaron Spelling would lose his clout with ABC.
    • Correction, July 1991 to May 1995. JFP got the ratings up during her first year, but it also helped that ABC big three were tanking at various times during that year and Days was in their post-supercouple/pre-Reilly mess era. It will always disappoint me that the ratings during the Calhoun/Long/Curlee era did not reflect the quality of the show.
