Yeah, dammit, that is the other shoe in the air that I've been waiting to drop. Again with the end of an era, so many great fond memories. For the record people who say she's not a nice person, apparently wouldn't recognize a nice person if they met one! Or if they went to a Yankees game with her, or were at one of her birthday parties. Much less if they were present when she had baked cupcakes for the office, or even just gossiping soaps with her because like so many of us she loves soaps as much as ... the Yankees!

My point is that as the next in line she would automatically get tarred with this one broad brush that the anonymous accusers were using. And I was in that office at least weekly for a number of years, those years . 

Well, that is one way to look at it. Another is that she had a helluva long high ride, doing what she loved & now like so much in soaps, that is going by the wayside. I expect her to meet this with her cheery good-natured & optimistic perspective & bounce well. 

And, oh, yeah, just another Minority Rapport!

I think this is weird. On the Digest website:

Wed. No author page for Stephanie Sloane.

Thurs. Author page for Stephanie Sloane with new email address.

Fri. Stephanie Sloane is effectively fired by having her position done away with. 

Sat. Author page still up & still attached to new email address. I'm going to send an email to see if it bounces. 

Yep, bounced. Okay, enough playing with their website.

There apparently was some confusion about this. I've updated the article to correct that Stephanie has departed a360media altogether as VP, Editorial Director. The company has also opted to shutter the teen books she oversaw, including the print edition of J-14

Stephanie Sloane Exits a360media as VP, Editorial Director

Stephanie left at the end of October when it was announced Digest as a print magazine would be discontinued. I've updated the article (as noted above) to make that blatantly clear.

       about it I think Jan is a fine supporting part for a solid daytime vet (probably someone from the P&G soaps), as opposed to someone from the production location who is clearly cheaper. Which seems to govern some casting. I get the rationale, but I would start going through the ATWT/GL, etc. rolodex myself.
    • I dont mind Jan. She's good in the minor capacity she is used. 
    • tbqh I don't care about Jan, I don't care about Ashley and I think Jon Lindstrom as Joey is an acquired taste. Jon is a great actor but certain things are in his zone and then some are not. Some days I find Joey credible and compelling, but the stuff with him hanging around the Golden Corral, grumbling about Doug and bitching at Randy is not amazing. If he had material on par with what MVJ wrote for Ryan/Kevin on GH back in the day it'd be a different story. I do think he has real chemistry with Vanessa, which is in large part due to MVJ clearly molding that character (and hiring an appropriate actor) in the Lucy Coe vein when she reinvented Lucy in the '90s as well. But I am not here to spend 6+ months watching Jon glower a lot (which is what he's doing half the time to carry weak story) and make more vague dire pronouncements while Jen Jacob gets flustered and weepy over "Daddy" or whatever would come of that storyline. Putting them together sounds like a recipe for doom to me. But I may be in the minority on that.
    • I know this will never happen. But... Halle Berry as Dani Dupree(BTG). She would rock this role, it's in her wheelhouse.
    • When I see how bad the Ashley/Derek scenes are, I know there must be a larger purpose and Joey being her father is the thing that makes the most sense.  My take on it is that Ashley knows Joey is her father but doesn't know Joey. Maybe he was there when she was a child or just not around at all but I believe Jan when she says she didn't lie to her daughter about who her father was. Maybe she left him when she discovered his dangerous lifestyle.  I do think they could really jump start the character of Ashley if they hurry and do this. Jan is a great character and her scenes with Ashley have been helpful. This would further integrate Ashley into the canvas and give her something dramatic to do. With her working at the hospital along with Doug, it could lead to complications if she learns Doug is involved with her father. I just need is sooner rather than later because Derek is tanking her character. I need a distraction.

    • The stories are awful. I'm not enjoying any of them. All I'm left with is Sally in a plastic dress.
