New York Post
Page Six reports Vincent A. Musetto “was given an affectionate send-off by his colleagues” Thursday night after 40 years at the tabloid. (He notes that he’s been with the paper “since it was a left-wing daily.”) Musetto, who wrote the classic “Headless Body” headline in 1982, says the favorite of his own heds is “Granny Executed in Her Pink Pajamas.” He retires as Post film editor; his all-time favorite film is Jean-Luc Godard’s “Breathless,” according to this release.
