Nikki Finke, LA Weekly's official Graydon Carter stalker, says the New York Times is rushing to put out a story on GraydonGate — definitely on Friday, she claims. (What did Graydon allegedly do again? Now we can't even remember.)

Oh! What's that smell wafting down from 43rd Street? I think it's the smoldering of NYT media reporter David Carr's heaping ashtray as he works the phones. Type faster, bitch!

Meanwhile, Fox News gossip-boy Roger Friedman — famous for kvetching in his column about anyone he thinks is biting his items — totally seems to have bitten a big chunk of inspiration from the LA Weekly Graydon Carter pieces without credit. No honor among the thieves at Fox News — I'm as shocked as you are.
