Erin Overbey, the longtime New Yorker staffer who in a tirade last week accused editor-in-chief David Remnick of sabotaging her by inserting errors into her work, was fired by the magazine on Friday for unprofessionalism and performance issues.Overbey, 50, an archive editor who worked at The New Yorker since 1994, fired off another string of poison-pen on Monday announcing she'd been canned, and said Remnick, 63, plotted to 'intimidate and silence women.'On Monday, the Daily Beast's reported that internal New Yorker documents showed Overbey was ousted 'due to a pattern of conduct that is disruptive,' which former co-workers said included being 'unnecessarily hostile' and taking to social media any time she had a gripe with management.
