New York magazine's party goer and PR team member extraordinaire Betsy Burton (left) is leaving the exclusive halls of New York for more corporate pastures.

Jossip has learned that Burton is unlatching from Serena Torrey's (right) side (where she held the title of communications manager) to join the PR team at Time magazine.

After a little more than two years working with Adam Moss, and sending countless emails to bloggers on behalf of New York, Burton will join the expanding PR machine at Time.

We are also told that other top-notch mag pimpers are fleeing to the new on-the-rise press team at Time, under Ali Zelenko. In addition to Burton's exodus, Nora Haynes has been snatched from Rolling Stone, and Daniel Kile is leaving the New Yorker.

While we might speculate that more and mags are working to build strong in-house PR teams, as far as we know, Maxim, Blender, and Radar will continue to be repped from the outside by e-mail blasting Four Corners publicist Noa Rabinowitz.
