Event Description

Wolff indicates he will file the column with USA Today for Monday publication and identifies barriers to placement at New York Times or Wall Street Journal, contingent on on-the-record sources. He offers alternative placement options including a unnamed Politico reporter or New York Magazine (deferred to February), and requests confirmation of availability for a conversation the following day.

Quoted Evidence

“Problem with story is that tabs are too invested in present story line, and unlikely that the Times or WSJ will want to touch it--tho, depending on who is willing to on record, they might. There is another politico reporter I know who might do it, again, if the on-the-record sources are public people. Or, I will use it for New York Magazine, but that won't be until Feb. Can you still talk tomorrow?”
