D'ARCY DROPS THE OTHER SHOE

David D'Arcy: 'I'm not even roadkill' [Photo: Tardboy]Axed NPR reporter David ("Roadkill") D'Arcy has filed a $5-million suit against National Public Radio and the Museum of Modern Art, according to the New York Post. The suit claims "he was slandered for his report on a Nazi-looted painting once displayed at the museum," the Post's David Hafetz writes. Last July D'Arcy complained to us, "I'm not even roadkill," and our bet was that "NPR hasn't heard the last of him. Network execs have said nasty things about D'Arcy, which may be seen as damaging to his reputation, and which they may yet be forced to regret." In case you're interested, we've unpacked the D'Arcy affair for months, with more than a dozen items posted since last March.

Postscript: Better headline: "D'Arcy Sorta Drops The Other Shoe?" He messages: "We have NOT served anyone yet. ... We stopped the clock."
