Fox News gossip Roger Friedman thinks that Michael Ovitz somehow spurred the L.A. Times to investigate Graydon Carter, and calls the story about the Vanity Fair editor's Hollywood links that ran Friday (and one in the New York Times the same day) a yawner. Jack Shafer at Slate has about the same reaction: non-scandal. On the question of which paper got their story into print first, I think of it as a tie with an asterisk. Both papers ran it on Friday, though the story missed the NYT edition distributed in Hollywood. The LAT story got into every edition -- for what it's worth.
