Ted Casablanca: E!xit Stage Left, E!ven?
Where's Ted Casablanca? The venerable E! News gossip disappeared without explanation last month from the cable airwaves. He still operates a online column-cum-blog, The Awful Truth, where on August 1 he told fans who noticed his absence, "I'm starting to know how Star Jones Reynolds felt." Hmm?
NYTV asked; Mr. Casablanca answered.
"All I can say, at this point, is my column will appear (amped) someplace else as of next June," he wrote in an e-mail.
Where will he go? What will he do? Is E! letting such divine talent slip away?
A network representative had the following response tonight. "Ted is still very much with eonline. He's a very valuable member of their staff."
She added: "I can't speak to his contract, but everybody here's like, 'What?'"

Ted is a flaming fruitcake but he is an entertaining one. Im sure hell land on his feet.
Anyone checked if he alraedy took TedCasablanca.com ?
Ryan Seacrest strikes again! Remember how he got Kathy Griffin dumped when he came aboard the E! team? Now it's Ted's turn - E! sure is going down the toilet.
I believe that Ted is an extremely underrated and underused talent at E and someone over there is making a huge mistake. Instead of lessening his profile, he should get his own show! He's fab!
Thank goodness!
