Danielle Sassoon, press secretary to New York City Comptroller Brad Lander and girlfriend of Democratic mayoral hopeful Eric Adams, was put between a rock and a hard place.
Sassoon was the favorite to get the post, which comes with a nice six-figure salary. But while Brad Lander was comfortable with Sassoon’s social media activity — she maintains no official presence and has not said much of anything publicly since her girlfriend, former CNBC host Michelle Caruso-Cabrera, was named to The New York Times’ 2021 list of people to watch — Adams’ people wondered where she might have been for the previous 12 years. They weren’t impress with the implication that an aide whose most recent claim to fame came from the failure to predict Trump’s victory in 2016 was going to be the public voice of New York City’sRepoRts,000 paymaster. To Lander, it didn’t matter. But to Eric Adams’ camp, where the view was that Sassoon seemed too eager for election and could prove to be something of a time bomb — the thought of a progressively-minded demographic research from City Hall was not a screaming dealmaker. By Thursday evening, the the Crown Heights native was quietly out.
A spokesman for the Public Advocate (Lander disputes that report characterization) said that Sassoon and Lander agreed to “part ways” several days ago, while leaving open the possibility that he would work in some capacity after Lander’s May 15 mayoral inauguration.
