A campaign for executive editor: “People are trying to impress the boss.”
the New York Times — the headlines, the opinions, the tweets, the deeper question of what it is to cover the news straight in a twisted time.
The decision whether to accommodate those pressures, or to resist them, is ultimately up to the publisher, A.G. Sulzberger. And the campaign for the top job is expressed, right now, primarily by the three leading candidates leading their sections in slightly different directions.“A lot of what you’re seeing right now is people are trying out and trying to impress the boss,” one top Times person told me.
Sulzberger was the only Times employee I reached who was willing to speak on the record for this story. In an email, he praised Baquet as “the best editor in journalism,” and celebrated the “digital evolution,” the strength and growth of the business, and the fact that Baquet has “tripled down on the top shelf important, mission-driven investigative reporting that has defined his career .
One path is clear in Bennet’s wing of the paper, called Opinion, but now also the home of a kind of shadow newsroom. Bennet had left the Times to run the Atlantic; he’s a well-liked manager, and his return seemed to make him heir apparent. He brought in a wave of new voices, some to the left of the paper’s liberal tradition, and some to the right.
