Where did "PittGirl" go?

Anybody who pulled up The Burgh Blog on Tuesday expecting to find a typical funny story about downtown, or maybe the Steelers, found a sad goodbye note instead.

"I hope you'll trust me that I'm doing what I must do, for my comfort level, for my privacy and for my life ... I hope I can count on you all to accept my decision, and that means no more digging about who I am and what I do."

WTAE Channel 4 Action News anchor Andrew Stockey e-mailed PittGirl on Tuesday night for some more details.

PittGirl replied and wrote, "I learned that my identity had been discovered and that small bits of info were leaking out. For my job's sake, I wanted to shut it down proactively."
