Wasserstein Ill?

wasserstein.jpgIs Lazard CEO Bruce Wasserstein seriously ill? That’s what people are telling Peter Cohan.


According to my source, a few weeks after the tragic death of his beloved sister Wendy, from lymphoma, and just after delivering his infamous report on Time Warner Inc.

Has anyone seen Bruce lately? Send denials or confirmations to tips(at)dealbreaker.com or leave them in the comments below.

That Carney makes me crazy. Crazy horny. Tell him to grab some low fun and meet at 334 Mott, 3rd floor, past the dentist office and fruit. Door is called Madame Zhou. I be there all day waiting.
