Self-excommunicating Goldman Sachs survivor Greg Smith's book may be worth as much as $1 million, a "top editor" in the publishing industry tells the Post. Smith is apparently being represented by N.S. Bienstock, a firm whose speciality is repping "reality TV shows and news personalities." Can we finally get a @GSElevator sitcom? And can that guy from Princess Bride play Lloyd Blankfein?
Many publishers are still wary of publishing a tell-all about a powerful and litigious company. "There's some big upside potential as well as some downside," another source says. That and the title "Going Rogue" is already taken.
Also: Goldman's boardroom recently got a visit from the Anti-Muppet Defamation League over their cruel practice of referring to hapless clients as "muppets."
