Just two weeks after dropping anvils on former boss Ed Litvak, ousted American Morning producer Chez Pazienza (fired for blogging), pictured, is suddenly his enemy's biographer.
It might have a little something to do with it being Litvak, who fired Pazienza, finding himself suddenly "resigning" from CNN under Jon Klein's infamous regime post-fallout.
Writing on Huffington Post, Pazienza says:
This morning, CNN U.S. President Jon Klein announced that Ed Litvak — Executive Producer of American Morning, my former supervisor, the man who fired me two weeks ago — is resigning. He's leaving both the show and the network under circumstances which, even to the least cynical, would seem slightly suspect. The early inside line is that he's ready to do something that doesn't involve waking up at two in the morning, and Klein's official eulogy does little more than pump the requisite amount of platitudinal sunshine up the ass of the soon-to-be dearly departed without really shedding any light on why Ed is out.
You'd be a fool though not to take the timing, given recent events, into account. [...]
I wasn't sure how I felt about such a possibility to begin with; now that Ed is being forced out of CNN, it really leaves a lot for me to ponder. And make no mistake, Ed is being forced out. He was appointed EP of American Morning in August of 2006, which means that he likely signed a two year contract at the very least. It's only February of 2008 — that's damn early to tell someone under contract that he or she won't be renewed.
Forget that Litvak, unlike Pazienza, will walk away with his severance — he's not bitter or anything. But did the outgoing American Morning exec producer get the ax because, well, he gave Pazienza the ax? Or did he take the fall for a higher-lever decision? Is Litvak just the scapegoat for all the bad press Pazienza is causing?
So many MAYBEs.
