Hats off to Buzbee. Management does not tell the newsroom to quash stories.[/quote]

This feels like Buzbee trying to salvage some job prospects elsewhere. It doesn't negate the fact that she lost HALF of the WaPo's readership. [/quote]

She doesn’t need to “salvage” her job prospects. She wasn’t particularly beloved at the Post, but she was the top editor there and at the AP, and both organizations won a bunch of awards for their work under her tenure.

The drop in readership is obviously not only her fault, and no one who’s in a position to hire her would think it was. [/quote]
If you think winning professional awards is more important than losing audience, you have the wrong priorities. [/quote]
