Lori, you might want to consider removing the Press Release Writer lead. The poster says in the ad, “This will be great experience and you may use the document as a resume enhancer.” He then goes on to list compensation as “no pay.” I know Craigslist often defaults to this field, but I have a sneaking suspicion that’s really what he intended.

I remember that episode, too! It might explain how she could live in Manhattan writing one stinking column a month. Even so, if they did the unthinkable and asked for $1K words, that's still not enough for those fabulous shoes.

It's why I wear Payless. ;))

I remember thinking the same thing when I watched the show. There was one episode, however, when she mentioned her editor had increased her pay to $4 a word. So that gives you a better idea of what she was supposed to be making for her column.
