    he reported directly to the managing editor? no wonder he didn't think the rules applied to him.

    Who in their right mind would willingly leave a job covering pop music for The New Yorker. Oh, right, someone who tries to submit a $5K expense from a strip club to a freaking newspaper. (PS just learned Sasha was a guy; had been reading "her" for years without knowing.)

    That reminds me that Shirley Povich once was listed in the Who's Who of American Women.

    Well, when you are a music critic but trying to have Chipmunks take over the business, it seems like a conflict of interest.

    He didn't mean to spend $5,000 but he prematurely shot his wad on what was supposed to be a dry run, if you will, so he's afraid he has something of a mess on his hands.
