So, for those who know about advertising, this is the time of year known as the "Upfront" . . . when about 80% of TV advertising time for the year is sold to marketers. Anyway, most people hear about this time of year because it is when the networks unveil their fall TV lineups . . . well, when they do this, they have big presentations and lavish parties following . . .
This year's Fox Upfront after-party ended up providing a bit more entertainment than usual and an incident there has made for a legendary NY advertising story . . . and has probably ruined the career of one poor, drunken girl in her first month on the job . . . this girl had started at a competing agency as a media buyer about 2 weeks before the Upfront party . . .

PS - Yes, there are photos going around (No, I won't post 'em . . . poor girl has suffered enough)
PPS - She's not attractive
PPPS - I've got a copy of the email they reference, but for fear of turning this into a "potty" thread, I can't really post it . . .
PPPPS - Not only has this pretty much ruined her career in NYC, but someone she knew from college made sure her old college community knew about it too . . . http://www.ubersite.com/m/34472
