Yesterday we laid out the case for Ron Burkle's financial involvement in Radar; today an insider gives us some clarifications: Your source is right about Ron Burkle, Yusef Jackson, and Radar. Before Yusef went into the beer business (which is its...
So why won't Yusef Jackson say whether or not Ron Burkle is one of his co-investors in Radar? Take it away, Chicago Tribune:
Surly Maer Roshan only talks to Yusef Jackson. Yusef talks to Ron Burkle. It's called plausible deniability. You know, allegedly. [NYO] Martha Stewart finds a way to write off her upcoming trip to China: It's a fact-finding mission. [NYP]...
When Women's Wear Daily broke the news Friday that Maer Roshan's Radar was perhaps set to be resurrected once again, the paper cited Maer's new patron as California supermarket magnate and Democratic moneybags Ron Burkle. But there was a potential...
With the launch of Radar 3.0 right around the corner—like, Tuesday! OMG!—we thought it was time to revisit the murky question of what the real story was behind its rise from the ashes of Mort Zuckerman and Jeffrey Epstein's $5-million...
Lurking 'neath the sexy Patrick McMullan watermark (someday we'll spring for photo rights, seriously) is a happy scene from the days of Radar magazine's 2.0 period. That's our favorite alleged massage fan Jeffrey Epstein at left, and Radar honcho...

Among all the interesting bits about Radar yesterday — that the website is sked for mid-August and the print version for early 2007, that Yusef Jackson is the lead investor and no one will comment whether Burkle's involved, that there's even...
There's no new news on Radar today — nothing on the likelihood of 3.0, nothing on the funders of 3.0, nothing on who'll be around for 3.0. But that's certainly no reason not to engage in ongoing rampant speculation.
Kudos to the usually loquacious Maer Roshan, who in this latest Radar go-round has successfully restrained himself from any pronouncements about its rebirth. Until today, that is, which goes down as the first time Roshan has publicly discussed his...
Last night Radar, which is a magazine, threw a party at Goldbar for its new Politics issue. Outside, someone said that if Goldbar disappeared at that moment from the face of the earth, no one in New York would be offended. But there were free...
