On the heels of yesterday's departure from the Mad Men team of Emmy winning writer Kater Gordon, we hear that another scribe is following suit.

Robin Veith, who got credit on the classic episode "The Wheel" has left Sterling Cooper, we are told. Veith is said to be an old pal of showrunner Matthew Weiner from way back, raising concerns that a shake-up could be afoot on the show.

However, as the writing staff is currently in hiatus between seasons, this may just be the time when people who have decided that they are moving on announce that they are moving on. After hyping up Gordon's departure, Nikki Finke reports that it is in fact, staff turnover as usual. Update: Finke emailed to take issue with our characterization of her Gordon reporting: "The point of my post remains the same: how very unusual for a writer to be fired less than a month after winning the Emmy. That is why I wrote this in the first place." She also wanted to point out that she heard about Veith before us. So there.

If anyone know's anything more about what's afoot, we'd love to hear from you. Drop a line to your friends at Gawker, confidentiality guaranteed.
