Mondo Times editors Boulder Colorado USA | Posted at 7:36am on Wednesday, November 11th, 2009 | Ex-Editor Sues Post, Alleges "Pervasive Racism and Sexism"
The E&P Pub reported on November 10, 2009:
"A former New York Post editor who claims she was fired after complaining about sexism and racism -- including an infamous cartoon that appeared to liken President Barack Obama to a chimp -- has sued the paper.
Reuters reports that Sandra Guzman, a black associate editor, claims she was fired Sept. 29 "in retaliation for complaints about allegedly pervasive racism and sexism at the newspaper."
The Huffington Post reveals the allegations range from a Post executive referring to Guzman as "Cha Cha #1" to a senior editor offering a reporting job to a female copy assistant in exchange for oral sex."

Mondo Times editors Boulder Colorado USA | Posted at 7:53am on Monday, November 9th, 2009 | Two-Bit Increase Decimates Circulation Numbers at New York Post, the New York Times reported on November 8, 2009:
"Nearly every paper in America has lost circulation, but The Post more than most — down almost 30 percent in 2.5 years. The slide accelerated after The Post’s price returned to 50 cents last year.
With a proliferation of online news sources, it is harder than ever for a paper to be a must-read, said Donald Forst, the former top editor of New York Newsday, The Village Voice and The Boston Herald.
“The tabloids still do the things they used to do, but a lot of it doesn’t feel as compelling,” Mr. Forst said. "There's so much gossip out there that you can go lots of other places, and I think it’s hurt The Post especially.”

Mondo Times editors Boulder, Colorado USA | Posted at 11:47pm on Tuesday, September 29th, 2009 | Alyson Campbell, founder of AMP3 Public Relations, gave PR Newswer 5 tips to get a story into Page Six of the New York Post on September 28 2009:
"Here are Campbell's top five tips on how to get your item into Page Six.
1. Be realistic, is your item really Page Six-worthy?
2. If so, how is your item relevant? Tie it in to a scandal or hot topic of some sort that is currently taking place.
3. Clearly identify in your subject line if this is an "Item," a "Sighting," or a "We Hear...": the three types of bits they run in Page Six daily.
4. Keep your pitch short, exciting and concise, including at least one boldface name, and be sure to pitch the news to Page Six exclusively. I like to send in my gossip tips in 'headline speak,' using the same tone that they use to write their one-liner items.
5. Make sure all sources and spokespeople are going to be readily accessible, in the event of fact checking or requests for comment, as turnaround on Page Six is very quick."

Eric Kallgren Boulder Colorado USA | Posted at 9:24pm on Friday, May 22nd, 2009 | In "Free To Be Ignored," posted on May 21, 2009 at The Big Money blog, James Ledbetter offers a very funny (and very likely fictional) anecdote about the Post:
The rationale that Bloomingdale's CEO Marvin Traub supposedly gave to Rupert Murdoch for not advertising in the New York Post: "Your readers are our shoplifters."
