ET , formerly with New York Post, has developed relationship with New York Times.
What do you think?

She just posted her first theater review....The Execution of Mrs Cotton.

Isherwood's replacement?

A puzzlement indeed.

Looks like the Times scooped her up - not sure how regularly she'll be contributing but oof they didn't give her a high profile first assignment, did they? Also, it appears the Post may no longer have a regular theater critic on staff, unless I am missing on someone? If so, certainly sad news.

Is it possible that she's freelancing, or does the Times only work with staff writers?
Posted: 7/19/16 at 7:30am
She's a stringer. She's not replacing anyone.

Yes they are:)

Can't see the Times hiring another full time theater critic so maybe one of the other guys may be leaving. I thought she was fairly decent critic at the NY Post but noticed her reviews were usually fairly short.
Posted: 7/19/16 at 9:58am
No one is leaving. They just have her doing freelance.
The NYT theater section is a boys' club anyway. Everyone on staff is male.

She was probably constrained by the Post's article length requirements. Trust me, most reviewers would love to write paragraphs and paragraphs.
Posted: 7/19/16 at 10:13am
Love her reviews - and glad that they're not restricted to an insanely short length anymore. Hope she continues to review for the Times

Maybe not a relationship. Just a little heavy petting.

I'm glad her distinctive critical voice will be heard again. I truly enjoy her writing, whether or not I agree with her (which I usually do).
