Newer PostOlder PostM O N D AY, J U LY 2 4 , 2 0 0 6Goodbye New York Post; Hello Daily NewsSunday marked the last day I am writing for the NY Post and the firstday I'm writing for the NY Daily News. I'm sure people have beenpublished in the NY Times and one of the tabloids on the same daybefore. But being published in both tabloids on the same day isprobably very unusual if not unique. Here's my final NY Post DVDcolumn (I'll still be covering DVDs for other outlets) and a story about"Ren & Stimpy" on DVD. My first article for The Daily News was on theadorable actress Brittany Snow and the new teen flick "John TuckerMust Die" (great title). Sadly, it wasn't posted online, so no link. Whythe switch? The NY Post has been great to me over the years, but theysimply don't do many feature articles on artists. Trend pieces, gossipitems, buzz items -- sure. But actually interviewing an actor in a newmovie or TV show or (God forbid, play) was becoming a rare event. TheNY Daily News offers a lot more opportunities for the sort of article Iwant to do. And now I can listen to Billy Joel's "New York State ofMind" without feeling bitter that he name-checks the New York Timesand the Daily News without mentioning the Post!POSTED BY MICHAEL IN NEW YORK AT
