Relationship Between NYT's Pogue and OutCast VP Causing Conflict?

One of the The New York Times’ star tech reporters David Pogueis in a romantic relationship with a VP at The Outcast Agency, Nicki Dugan. And The Daily Beast says there could be a conflict of interest brewing.

According to the story, Pogue has reported on a number of OutCast clients, including some of the big ones that the Daily Beast writes would be “hard to avoid,” like Cisco and Amazon. While he has done so both positively and negatively, he did not disclose the relationship in the stories.

Both Damon Darlin, Pogue’s editor, and Alex Constantinople, CEO of The OutCast Agency, say that Pogue and Dugan spoke with them about the relationship.
