Rumor: Murray Chass Riding His New-Age Horseless Carriage Into the Sunset

Did we contribute, in some minuscule, 0.000000001% way to Murray Chass allegedly being bought out by the New York Times? The Big Lead is reporting Chass' impending departure. The news, of course, will take a few days to reach Murray, as he depends solely on the Pony Express for communication (the Postal Service, he maintains, is a passing fad that he won't abide).

I'm really torn. Should I feel bad about this? Or terrific?

To be honest, I'm already mourning the loss of hundreds of future statphobic-fish-in-a-barrel posts. If this news is true, FJM has lost a goldmine. (The VORPies flag flies at half mast today.)
