A Don Hewitt-Graydon Carter collabo? According to our favorite gossip crimefighting duo:

"Former '60 Minutes' producer Don Hewitt won't be goofing off in his retirement - if Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter has anything to say about it. Carter is talking with the 83-year-old Hewitt about joining his magazine 'so he can bounce ideas off him,' a source tells us. A VF rep confirms, 'Graydon and Don had a conversation about Don becoming a consultant.' Stay tuned."

I think we'll pass on this idea.

"Best,
Graydo"
