'RS' Employees Invited to Their Own Party!
Yesterday we suggested — while acknowledging we were basically talking out of our asses — that Jann Wenner wasn't inviting his Rolling Stone staffers to the music mag's big-deal 1,000th issue party. Today comes some clarification on that front. While we received another email early this morning from an insider who'd been snubbed — "it is in fact true that most wenner employees were not invited to this huge party that we're all working so hard for" — we were also forwarded the following email, proving that all editorial folks, even regular freelancers, had been invited:

Subject: Regarding 1000 RSVPs
Hey everyone,
Sorry to bug you about this again, but I've been instructed that instead of e-mailing your RSVP to that address I gave you before, you should instead > e-mail ME about the party.
...and on that note, if you DID e-mail that other address, that's fine too. This is just for those of you who have yet to RSVP.
Thanks again,
AT
So maybe it's just the folks "working so hard for" the party — i.e., the marketing kids — who weren't invited?
