The strange case of Susan Sachs

Judy Miller aside, the New York Times has another settlement case on the table: the case of Susan Sachs, former Baghdad (and then Istanbul) bureau chief fired in April for allegedly sending emails to the wives of Baghdad correspondents Dexter Filkins and John Burns revealing their infidelities. The New York Observer‘s Tom Scocca broke that back in April; the Observer‘s Sheelah Kolhatkar has been following the case since then as Sachs and the Newspaper Guild negotiate with the NYT.
