JimRomenesko.com has a post on Monday that divulges that former Bloomberg News feature writer Craig Copetas, who was based in Paris, is no longer with the company.
“For years, he was a Winkler favorite until he went to Dubai. Some three years ago, Copetas angered the local Bloomberg bosses in the emirate – anxious to keep the peace with the many millionaire Bloomberg customers there – by seeking to uncover tales of human rights abuses, including alleged police torture with the complicity of a member of the royal family, and persecution of foreign businessmen.
