Last night, the New School’s Center for Communication held a panel about gossip reporting—or, more precisely, ethical gossip reporting. “Despite the temptations and stereotypes,” flyers posted around the university’s Greenwich Village campus read, “you CAN write a gossip column with integrity!”

Richard Johnson spent a quarter century turning the New York Post's Page Six column into America's premier tabloid gossip column. Three years ago, he left for a big money gig on the West Coast. Now, he is returning home. Welcome back, you sleazeball!

The New York Post's gossip column Page Six issued a correction today but it still hasn't caught two mistakes it made the day before yesterday. Is new editor Emily Smith really ready to take over the storied gossip column?

Looks like longtime Page Six boss Richard Johnson is leaving Page Six for LA after all. But not to work for the Hollywood Reporter, whose $1 million offer Johnson had to turn down because of his contract with the Post.
