It turns out that the celebrity real-estate agent found dead a few days ago in her posh East Side apartment was murdered by her fed-up personal assistant. “It was that Linda just kept yelling at her, over everything,” a law-enforcement official said.

Coming this Sunday or next: a feature article on the front page of the New York Times Style section about the frustrations of being a personal assistant in Manhattan. “No doubt personal assistants all over Manhattan secretly applauded when they learned the identity of Linda Stein’s killer,” the article will begin. “But what is the life of a personal assistant really like?” The article will include several quotes from harried twentysomething personal assistants and at least one reference to “The Devil Wears Prada.”

You can bet on it.
