Red Herring -SplatterA tipster tells us that he was approached
by Red Herring to work as a reporter from his "home office,"
probably something similar to the job listed on the Herring
website for a wireless reporter. He turned the job down very
quickly, but says that he later talked to the fellow who ended
up taking the job who was having "difficulty" getting paid. No
surprise there, given the "difficulties" the magazine has had
recently. "What pissed me off most was that they were
approaching people when they had to know they were in such
financial straits."
