So which local columnist is using Craigslist to look for a lackey?

Join the guessing. My money's on the South End News's Dog Lady. Just a feeling.

Dog Lady is Monica Collins who was the media critic at the Herald.

She actually has decent syndication as she is carried on Sunday by the Chicago Sun-Times

Yeah, I could see her writing a book, which is also mentioned in the ad.

Oh the incestuous print media in each other's underwear drawer.

I think it's William Forrester. Punch the keys for God's sake! Hee hee.

There are a few things in the ad that make me think it's not Monica Collins. Not sure, though ... hmmm, this is a good one.

I sent the thread to Monica and she got a good laugh from it. The idea of her hiring an assistant 'is a scream' was her response.

I just heard back from Monica myself. No, it's not her.

He writes a column for the South End News and lives in the South End; plus I got e-mail from him.
