I'm rested and ready, Mr. Bezos. ... Sir!

Do workers at Domino's Pizza get newspapers on election night?

They're bitchy about sharing it with the folks in the kitchen.

Marty Baron stepping down.

Marty Baron Will Retire From The Washington Post

Any chance Baron goes to the LAT in some capacity? He was in management there in the 1990s.

Give Jeff Bezos credit for sticking with Baron when he bought the Post. He could’ve brought in his guy, and I’m not sure how it would’ve turned out. Marty was fearless in taking down the Catholic Church in Boston and he was fearless taking on Trump and his cronies.

I mean, who fires Nick Saban?

No, because he is retiring from news. He'll likely land a cushy job chairing a journalism college or something.

Washington Post, Reuters and Los Angeles Times Search for New Top Editors

Throw in the changes at the top of cable and broadcast news. It's a good time for changeover - I'm hoping the Democratic Party takes the hint and nudges those in safe districts/states to anoint their successors if they wish, but make a graceful exit. Special elections could cost them the majorities.

I tried to read that link and received not 1, not 2, but 3 pup-ups simultaneously, two of which covered the screen.

Newspaper websites are moronic.

 

[SixToe]

I have an AdBlocker and still get some sites with pop-ups and screen covers. I ignore them and leave the site immediately.

If you're that stupid and rude to do that to readers, I have no need for your stories. At least wait until the end or the reader is trying to click away before flashing the pop-ups.
