The Page Six scandal continues to chug along, and this time, the feds are getting involved. Richard Johnson, Chris Wilson, and Paula Froelich (which the Daily News spells "Frohelich") will face questions relating to their former fellow gossip Jared Paul Stern.
Post spokesman Howard Rubenstein confirmed that the Page Six staffers would cooperate with the investigation, while one of Johnson's 10 lawyers, Ed Hayes, thinks it's a bit unnecessary — considering JPS hasn't actually been charged with a crime.
Johnson can't be repped by Hayes, though, because Hayes once repped Stern, and while he says it is Murray Richman who will get Johnson's back, Richman denies having any involvement. So, basically, we don't know who amongst the Sixers has a lawyer or who they are.
What we do know is that the word "kerfuffle" is slowly being reintroduced to the vernacular of media gossips.

Dissappointed in verbage in Paula Froelich's book "it!". Which I purchased. Sort of makes me wonder the validity of this book?! Page 5, bottom of the 3rd para. You state "Okay, number one I hate the word cute, and number two, no, it is a RETARDED item!). I find using this work "retarded" completely unpolitically correct. Especially coming from someone of your caliber working in the position you work in.
