The Regan Report: Mainstream Media Quotes
- Associated Press: "Judith has always been a good friend and one of the few people who never lied to me," said National Book Award nominated author Jess Walter. "Having dealt with publishing and Hollywood, I can't say that about everyone."
- Washington Post, Saturday: "[Her ability to drag the publishing industry into the muck] is so outrageous and flamboyant and audacious that part of you almost laughs while the other part of you wants to puke," said Little, Brown editor in chief Geoff Shandler.
- ABCNews.com: "I wouldn't be surprised if her phone is already ringing with offers from other houses," said Jossip's David Hauslaib. "She remains almost irreplaceable. … It's a very competitive industry and she's at the top of the game."
- New York Sun,, Monday: "It's difficult to avoid the conclusion that Ms. Regan was fired not for her legendarily difficult personality - and not, or not just, because of her longstanding rivalry with Ms. Friedman - but for her repeated affronts to the bland conformity of New York publishing."
- New York Times' David Carr, Monday: "Regan will change addresses, but not disappear. The best-seller list in any given week attests to the fact that she has a talent for identifying and filling consumer needs. And it is the job of media corporations to satisfy the market without regard to taste or rectitude.
LA Times, Saturday: "In firing Regan, HarperCollins may have spared itself further controversy. But it also lost a publisher who was one of the industry's most successful women."
NYDN, Sunday: Regan "is nothing if not a survivor," Sara Nelson, editor in chief of Publishers Weekly, said Saturday. "Somebody will hire her at a high level to do something in the media. She's not finished."
