Media Bubble: Actually, We Could Use A New Liver

  • Washington Post: "The best-run newspaper company in America because [Donald Graham] is head and shoulders the best newspaper executive in America." [NYT]
  • Print Radar: the same, but not (i.e., funded, allegedly). Also, they have a willingness to tell the truth—and claim pretty much any story that appeared somewhere else as an exlusive— that makes them different. Oh, the Radacity. [WWD]
  • America: Not ready to get its news from someone with a vagina.[Marketwatch]
  • Jayson Blair: working again! [BH]
  • Louise McBain, classicist: "So although we so rightly celebrate the breakthroughs of our age, we must ask ourselves a question: Are we Googling while Rome burns?" [NYM]
  • Nick Denton: "the kind of guy who would give you his kidney." Uh, yeah. We're gonna stick with "insane but brilliant." [Guardian]
