Ex-editor says he's landed on his feet

Former Editor Francis "Frank" Scandale says he's gotten a job -- though you might have trouble recognizing the companies he works for.


On his LinkedIn page, Scandale lists himself as "president of FKJ Consulting LLC" and "writer/editor of The Gumption Group."


FKJ Consulting is in Glen Rock, where he lives, and The Gumption Group is in Bernardsville. He says he's been employed since "December 2011."


Stephen A. Borg, publisher of The Record, fired Scandale on Halloween -- two days after a snow storm knocked out power to 175,000 in North Jersey and one day after the daily's poor coverage of the storm raised howls of disbelief from readers.


Here are excerpts from Scandale's LinkedIn networking page:

  3. It's an expression signifying that despite being fired, he's employed once again, though one of the companies sounds like he created it.

  4. FKJ. You get it? So why don't you share it?
