James also wrote, “Fortune managing editor Eric Pooley is still recovering from losing senior writer Katrina Brooker to Portfolio last week, but he has narrowly avoided a potentially more damaging loss to his masthead. Bethany McLean, the star editor at large who was the first reporter at a national publication to raise doubts about Enron and later co-wrote a book about the scandal, ‘The Smartest Guys in the Room,’ has turned down offers from Portfolio and The New York Times business desk, and accepted a counter offer from Fortune on Wednesday.”
