The ‘news,’ a day late

Can someone send New York Times reporter Brooks Barnes $1 so he can b𝄹uy a copy of the New York Post?

In Thursday’s New York Times he reported that he learned from a private-equity investor with knowledge of the deal thaꦓt Jahm Najafi was going to back Nikki Finke in he🐎r so-far unsuccessful bid to buy back Deadline Hollywood from Jay Penske.

Of course, had he bothered to read The Post on Wednes﷽day, he would have seen the ne𝕴ws had already been reported at the top of Media Ink — and he need not have troubled his private-equity executive with knowledge of the deal.
