Ted Casablanca: E!xit Stage Left, E!ven?

Where’s Ted Casablanca? The venerable E! News gossip disappeared without explanation last month from the cable airwaves. He still operates

Where’s Ted Casablanca? The venerable E! News gossip disappeared without explanation last month from the cable airwaves. He still operates a online column-cum-blog, The Awful Truth, where on August 1 he told fans who noticed his absence, “I’m starting to know how Star Jones Reynolds felt.” Hmm?

NYTV asked; Mr. Casablanca answered.

“All I can say, at this point, is my column will appear (amped) someplace else as of next June,” he wrote in an e-mail.

Where will he go? What will he do? Is E! letting such divine talent slip away?

A network representative had the following response tonight. “Ted is still very much with eonline. He’s a very valuable member of their staff.”

She added: “I can’t speak to his contract, but everybody here’s like, ‘What?'”
