It came much faster than even I thought it would. Ditto. I wonder if the level of animosity in the newsroom that leaked out was only the very tip of the iceberg.

It came much faster than even I thought it would. Seth Mnookin was on NPR today and pointed out that when national desk editors who a month ago were under the iron grip of New York now say things in public like, "it doesn't matter whether Raines stays or goes, we have to concentrate on getting a paper out," then the news offices have become utterly ungovernable by Raines. Of course, having the WaPo run cartoons where a NYT news stand is embellished with the slogans "All the News We Just Make Up and Phone In" and "Accurate, Shmacurate, At Least We're Diverse" is a sign that things are pretty bad outside the news offices too.
