So where will self-described "girl reporter" Pia Shandel land now that her roost at The New VI has been incinerated? Public Eye makes no promises, but there's always chance she'll try for a position with the provincial government's public affairs bureau. After all, about a year ago, Ms. Shandel had informal discussions with government staffers about how best she could serve the lord and master of the West Annex (we're talking about Premier Gordon Campbell, not his chief of staff Martyn Brown). The possibility of a communications position was discussed. But, in the end, a decision was made to leave Ms. Shandel right where she was.
