Team Play?

Gawker’s Ryan Tate writes about a going away party for the Wall Street Journal’s Dan Herzberg. That’s not what makes this story interesting. What makes it interesting is comments allegedly made by WSJ Managing Editor Robert Thompson in regards to a new room that has a lot of TVs in it…

The line that pricked up reporters’ ears was when Thomson joked that the real reason the Hub was built was actually to “double the viewership of Fox Business Network,” or words to that effect. Zing!

The Journal, like FBN, is part of the News Corp. empire so this alleged comment is the kind of thing that drives PR people crazy…
