NEW YORK (AP) -- One of New York City's most famous and recognizable food critics is out of a job.
New York magazine confirmed Thursday that Gael Greene -- known for her flamboyant hats and influential opinions -- is no longer working for the publication.
Magazine spokeswoman Lauren Starke says that in a ``tightening economy, our company is simply no longer able to support four separate restaurant critics.'' Three other critics remain.
Greene was the magazine's chief restaurant critic from 1968 to 2002. After that, she wrote a weekly column called ``Insatiable Critic.''
Starke says this is Greene's last week at the magazine, and her last review will appear in Monday's issue.
