Martha Stewart's Columns Still In Syndication

Posted
By: Dave Astor Martha Stewart's two New York Times Syndicate columns are still available despite her indictment Wednesday on insider-trading charges.

"The syndicate will continue to sell and distribute 'askMartha' and 'askMartha Weddings,'" said Managing Editor Michael Oricchio, when asked by E&P Online. "Martha hasn't been proven guilty of anything."

He added: "The trouble she's facing has nothing to do with her columns. They're not financial columns. And people still want to read them."

Oricchio said none of Stewart's 200-plus newspaper clients have canceled since yesterday. At least two papers had previously dropped Stewart because of her legal difficulties.
