“News Editor Bob Mong: New Business-Editorial Arrangement Won’t ‘Cross Line’”
by Robert Wilonsky
Believe me, our journalists aren’t shy. If they think this thing isn’t working right, they’ll be the first to tell you. I talked to a lot of people yesterday, and, yes, there’s uneasiness in some areas, . . . but we’re not backing down from this.
Now that‘s integrity.
* The bitly/info page shows only the most recent tweets (those from earlier in the day are no longer visible), but the overwhelming sense of dismay seems to hold no matter what time you check in.
E&P and bit.ly/info links thanks to Editor Mark.
