Suzanne O’Malley was a much admired screenwriter and journalist for “Law & Order” for years.
Her son worked for Forbes for 15 years.
So O’Malley has a lot to say about the new scandal at Forbes involving the dismissal of editor in chief Randall Lane. According to the NY Times, Lane took a secret $6 million gift from a firm associated with Forbes. When the magazine found out, they fired him. Lane, it seems, gets to keep the money!
Anyway, I respect O’Malley’s thoughts on the subject, which you’ll see below. I like the story about Lane ordering expensive sheets for himself. It must have been hard to be a lowly paid journo constantly writing about all these rich people and their glossy lives. Lane wanted to be them, I guess.
