Ramin Setoodeh Leaves "People," Returns to "Newsweek"

Apparently without having written a single article for People, notorious gay "journalist"  Ramin Setoodeh announced today that he is returning to the sinking ship that in Newsweek. (Insert your own rat joke here.)

Setoodeh's own explanation was thus:

There’s a lot of opportunity here, especially on the Web. I’m excited for the future and I can’t tell you how happy I am to be back,” Setoodeh told New York an e-mail this morning from the Newsweek offices. “Look, People is the most-read magazine in the country, but it wasn’t the right fit. I’m grateful to [editor] Larry Hackett for being supportive and letting me try something new. But Newsweek still has some of the best reporters, and young reporters, in the business. Don’t count us out.

Well, we're not buying it. Here is what we think happened. 

Thank heavens saner heads prevailed at People.
