TONY OF ALL MEDIA: Your Hump Day Disco Break: Andy Gibb

they're talking about me again

"Of course, not everyone was so intrigued [by our cover story]. 'Who runs New York?' griped Tony of All Media. 'The same people who always have. People with a helluva lot more money, who are prettier and more talented, and who are more politically and socially adept than you and I.' "
-New York magazine

"'Crisis?' Tony looked up as I entered my office. He politely averted his eyes from the damp patches on my shirt. 'Nothing major.' I could feel my smile sitting slightly askew, but he seemed not to notice. 'So' — he took out his pencil — 'let's talk about your publisher.'" -Ruth Reichl, in her memoir "Save Me the Plums," about her years as editor in chief of Gourmet

"I read a tweet from someone saying they were listening to a girl talk loudly about herself and reality stars and it turned out to be ME at breakfast! Mean!" -Andy Cohen, in his memoir "Superficial," referring to a tweet of mine

"The entire staff was fired by email. Tony Case broke the news ..." -The Nation

"Media watcher Tony Case, writing on his blog Tony of All Media, said ..."
-New York Post

"The astute media observer Tony Case, who blogs at Tony of All Media, said..." -Folio

"Tony of All Media was first with the big news." -Romenesko

"As blogger Tony Case says ... "
-Mashable

"Selling advertising can be tough, but as media blogger Tony Case writes about NPR, 'sucking on the government teat' might be worse."
-CBS News

Hi, I'm Tony Case. I write about media, marketing and the culture for a few magazines and websites you've heard of. I also produce content for ad agencies, tech companies, consumer brands and entertainment companies you know. You might've caught me on ABC's Good Morning America, CNBC's Squawk Box, CBS This Morning, CNN or MSNBC, where I sometimes play opinionater. I also enjoy sharing news, trends and the odd opinion from this space, which is mine all mine and totally unaffiliated with anybody I get a paycheck from. Nor does anything you read here necessarily reflect the views of anybody I work for, or anyone else of good taste or judgment or of a sound mind. If you like what you read, keep coming back. If not, that's OK — you'll get smarter someday. Comments are disabled to avoid the trolls, but I welcome your feedback, so find me at Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.
