Why Foster Kamer Is Leaving Esquire

Foster Kamer, formerly of Gawker and The Village Voice and BlackBook is leaving after just four months at Esquire for a gig at the New York Observer.

Why’s that?

Well, Observer editor Elizabeth Spiers came calling.

As Kamer writes on his own blog:

“Spiers is someone I told very early on in my career I would follow into war, and the day her new position was announced, I couldn’t get anything done. I was slackjawed. Like a lot of people.
