News and notes from the week we might've missed.
Important? Yes. Very? Not So Much: MediaPost invites VIPs to event, then uninvites them three hours later.
'Poker That is in Your Face'?: Fox TV executive George Greenberg, quoted in a Sunday Times business article about poker on television: "Quality poker, dramatic poker and poker that is in your face is the poker that will be left standing."
Ex-Page Sixer Fernando Gil's Auto-Reply: to Jossip: "As you may have read in the Daily News, the Post has decided to hire a full time person from outside the column to be the 4th full timer along with Chris, Paula and Richard, which leaves myself and several other part-timers out of the picture. I'll still be working on the Page Six magazine, due out in September, and other parts of the paper (hey - I hear "Tempo" digs itself some Latin American writers). If you do have anything that is Page Six worthy, and would like me to pass it along to one of my peoples at Page Six, by all means send it along. Now that my Fridays are free, I'm happy to report I can take up that 53-year-old rich nerd on his long standing lunch offer (Mahmoun's falafel in ten, guy?) In any event, I look forward to seeing you all soon."
