If you call sticking it in at the end of a post about Amy Poehler which somebody might not have bothered reading, then I guess you did ‘announce’ it

Noel Fielding and Russell Brand together are THE BEST.

If you read back a few posts, I announced on Friday that although Bobby was gone and left for personal reasons, a new writer would be joining us on Monday, which is Catherine – working under a pen name, hence the lack of details on her background – and she’s here to stay. I understand it must be difficult to lose former staff that have been around for a while, but since they moved on to other opportunities as people often do, I am now helming the site and we’re all getting used to each other. I have no plans to go anywhere any time soon, so you will get to know me (and like me, hopefully) over that period and we’ll all settle in more. I can’t control Bobby’s decision to leave, nor Emily’s or Sarah’s, and everyone’s opinion on the changeover will differ. However, I have to point out that just because change means difference doesn’t mean a bad one, whether or not people want to accept it. I hope you’ll stick around and continue to share your opinions and thoughts – as I encourage all the readers to do – but given so many differing thoughts and desires, the old saying holds true: you can’t please everyone, we can only do our best to find common ground with everyone. If you want to discuss this further, you’re always welcome to email me at ebgossipjenn@gmail.com

I agree. The fact that no one would know unless they happen to read the comments to this post seems off. EB has always been the site I go to in order to escape the real world/let off some steam, and now it kind of just makes me sad.

Thank you! I’m sorry she’s gone and I understand that you’re bummed. I can only hope that you guys keep reading and like what I’m doing. I’m so excited about my new role here and I’m going to give it everything I’ve got!

This site has always been way different in that the readers felt they were heard and listened to, by the writers. It used to feel like stopping by for an exchange with friends. We were sad to see anyone go, over the years, and it was tough to lose both Sarah & Emily together so recently, nevertheless, happy for them to get a great opportunity.
Of course, writers will always come and go, and it’s Bobbys own business where she’s off to, but no sooner were we getting to know her, than, poof! she’s gone, to be replaced with someone else who seems like a perfectly good writer, but with not a word of explanation or Introduction. If she left suddenly, that’s all anyone had to say. Instead you have to read back ten pages to see if she ever existed or if you imagined it all! This just doesn’t seem like EB now, I thought that was very impersonal and not cool.

I love Russel Brand. He did an interview with the westboro baptist church members and he did a really good job of showing how ridiculous they were while being civil. I also watched him on the Big Fat quiz of the year on BBC with Noel Felding and he really can be funny! I think he is a funnier person in general to watch/listen to then he is actually being a comedian. He’s just amusing and seems so kind. But I do think he sleeps around and is hygienically not my type, since I’m not sleeping with him though hes awesome.

Bobby chose to leave for personal reasons early last week. We can’t go into it further than that, but she may come back as a reader in the future, and we hope she does!

But an introduction would be nice…

I was wondering the same thing myself. She’s brand new, but I quite like her, hope she’s okay. Not that I don’t also like you, Ms. St. Ives.
