More upheaval at the North Jersey Media Group, which on Wednesday bounced the editorial page editor of The (Bergen) Record and Herald News.

Alfred Doblin had spent 18 years at the NJMG but ran into hot water on Feb. 26, when David Wildstein, in a blog, wrote that he was angling for a job as an aide to state Senate President Steve Sweeney — a definite no-no.

Wildstein made headlines recently for his connection to the Bridgegate sandal — he copped two guilty pleas for conspiracy. Wildstein now blogs for politicsDW.com.

And because it is New Jersey, there are tales within tales.

Wildstein had been the secret founder of Politicker.com, which at one time had backing from Jared Kushner’s Observer Media Group.

Wildstein was only outed as a founder when he took a senior job with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey in 2010 and had to disclose his previous employment.

The Bridgegate scandal erupted in 2013.

Now blogging away, Wildstein pressed Doblin on speculation that he was switching from journalism to government. Doblin gave a rather testy response to Wildstein — and then Wildstein published his story late Monday.

“I don’t see this as a news story,” Doblin was quoted as saying.

“It’s none of your business,” he continued. “I’m not a public official. I am the editorial page editor of The Record. I’m a private person.”

Well, he wasn’t the editorial page editor for long. Two days after the blog item appeared, Doblin was out.

Rick Green, vice president of editorial operations, “hit the roof” when informed about the story on the blog, insiders said.

Insiders said Doblin was told not to come to work on Tuesday, sources said.

On Wednesday, he was forced to resign, sources said.

Efforts to reach Doblin via LinkedIn were not successful.

Green told Media Ink, “I enjoyed working with Doblin, but he decided to go in a different direction and I accepted his resignation.” Thursday’s Record carried a one-paragraph mention that the interim editorial page editor is columnist Bruce Lowry.

Separately, Tronc has hired Nancy Meyer away from her job as president of the Gannett-owned NJMG to be its GM of the Southeast group overseeing papers in South Florida, Orlando and Newport News markets.
