'NY Post' Biz Section Bleeding Talent

Now that News Corp. owns the nation's top financial newspaper, will its other U.S. daily's business section go to seed?

Two reporters at the New York Post resigned recently. Roddy Boyd, who covers Wall Street, is heading to Fortune (following the path of media beat writer Tim Arango, who made the same jump a year ago), while Janet Whitman will become a U.S.-based business correspondent for Canada's National Post.

Their departures follow hard upon the abrupt exit of Dan Colarusso, who edited the business section for two years before moving over to metro in January. Highly regarded by his subordinates, Colarusso walked off the job last week. "His frustration had been building for a while," says a former Post staffer.

With former Star magazine editor Sean Gannon now running the section, and with News Corp. expected to transfer top talents to The Wall Street Journal, "it's the end of an era," adds the ex-staffer.
