Judith Regan used the “J” word

Guess I won’t be reading anything new from Judith Regan’s house for a while. She’s going to be in the publishing industry’s Siberia for a while. Maybe a few months. ;-)

Fired Editor’s Remarks Said to Have Provoked Murdoch – New York Times

The conversation with Mr. Jackson on Friday afternoon was described by sources as heated and confrontational, even for the famously forceful Ms. Regan. Ms. Regan’s alleged comments, which came in the midst of a tense conversation in which she berated Mr. Jackson, were directed at him and Ms. Friedman, who are Jewish, as well as toward other Jews, one of the sources said.

That source would not say specifically what Ms. Regan is alleged to have said, but characterized the comments as offensive and inappropriate, but not a hateful tirade. Still, the source said, it was enough to prompt Mr. Murdoch to dismiss her.

Right on.
