Kayla Epstein / @kaylaepstein: WaPo's renaissance was due in large - uncredited - part to the audience, graphics, data, newsletter, video, etc teams, which are dominated by talented women, POC, and LGBTQ staff. Yet their brilliance is rarely cited in these glowing success stories about the Post. https://twitter.com/...
Anthony DeRosa / @anthony: “plenty was innovative, such as an online section devoted to breaking news continuously, a team focused on how best to deliver Post journalism and a section covering video games & e-sports. ("A lot of it got replicated by @nytimes," Mr. Baron said archly.) https://www.nytimes.com/...
Dan Froomkin / @froomkin: Sadly lacking any real acknowledgement by either the author or the subject of how much much more WaPo could have been and done with a bolder leader or even just a better listener. https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ... https://twitter.com/...
Wesley / @wesleylowery: Anyway, it's understandable that when a major, and important, journalistic figure retires the coverage in totality is positive. But the coverage of this retirement — from the post and everyone else — has been pure propaganda. He hasn't been asked a single meaningful question
Paul Kane / @pkcapitol: My fav @PostBaron story. His very 1st WaPo day was almost total failure: Jan. 2, 2013, every IT system crashed - no email, no publishing, no phone lines. In Capitol @loriamontgomery & me couldn't reach editors. Disaster. Until Marty took charge ... https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...

Kayla Epstein / @kaylaepstein: The online headline wasn't framed the same way as the print version but still only gives passing credit to these journalists. This isn't to dismiss Baron and Bezos, who made enormous contributions. But just to say share the credit around a little bit https://www.nytimes.com/...
David Axelrod / @davidaxelrod: One of the great editors of his generation retires today. Marty Baron of the @washingtonpost has led 3 major news orgs & transformed the Post into a digital power without compromising the mission, values & ethics he championed in every newsroom he's run. https://www.nytimes.com/...

Kayla Epstein / @kaylaepstein: It's also not fair to only get Big Mad at NYT for this. Most of the stories this week have made the same mistake.

Jeremy Bowers / @jeremybowers: This does not represent my understanding of how The Post was remade. I cannot imagine the current Post without @katdowns and @WapoEngineering's Vidya Viswanathan, among several others. https://twitter.com/...

Dan Froomkin / @froomkin: I spent 1997-2003, 3 of those years as editor of the website, telling them to “accept the gift”, and 2004-2009, as White House Watch columnist, showing them how. So forgive me if I resent the revisionism that no one had thought of this until @JeffBezos https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ... https://twitter.com/...

David Sanger / @sangernyt: A fascinating piece on an editor's journey remaking a great newspaper for the digital age. I feel lucky to have worked with Marty when he was at the Times and I've been an admirer of his judgment and news instincts since. Eager to see his next act. https://twitter.com/...

Adam Kredo / @kredo0: 🔥 Reporters “make America what it is — without a free press, democracy dies. But we're still jackals. We can befriend you for years, and then bite off your arm just as you're offering us a treat. We can't help it. It's the nature of the job.” https://donaldgmcneiljr1954.medium.com/ ...
@samthielman: Man this is all really discouraging and it sounds a lot like senior management at the Times knows exactly how to push the buttons on public sentiment—and on Baquet—to get people they don't like shoved out. Also a *reporter* has “lost the newsroom?” Come ON https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Michael Malice / @michaelmalice: “It's not my fault I'm reprehensible, it's the job's fault!” The dying fox asked the scorpion why it stung despite knowing the consequence, to which the scorpion replies: “I couldn't help it.

Will Saletan / @saletan: Another version, written 1/28/21: “I was asked if I believed in systemic racism.

They're all different.'” /9 https://donaldgmcneiljr1954.medium.com/ ...
Jesse Singal / @jessesingal: Donald McNeil Jr.'s account of what happened is quite damning for the Times.

Dan Froomkin / @froomkin: Here is Donald McNeil's take. There's no excuse for his use of the N word, and I find some of his views offensive.

Part One: https://donaldgmcneiljr1954.medium.com/ ...
Glenn Greenwald / @ggreenwald: Anyone who formed opinions about the Donald McNeil episode - his 45-year career was ended by rich teenagers' complaints - should read his 4-part explanation. Among other things, it shows how misleading it is when stories are told with only one side heard: https://donaldgmcneiljr1954.medium.com/ ...
Adam Serwer / @adamserwer: Reading this, not only do I think McNeil should not have been forced out, but the reasons he was seem to have been misapprehended by many people publicly arguing about it https://donaldgmcneiljr1954.medium.com/ ...

Alex Neve / @alexneve24: When the world decries but shrugs its shoulders & does nothing... Too powerful, too sensitive, too many other interests at stake... That is what impunity looks like. And it does not take us down the road to human rights. #justiceforjamal https://www.nytimes.com/...
Amy W. Hawthorne / @awhawth: Intrigued by SAO remark re policy debate on punishing MBS: “The unanimous conclusion is that there's another more effective means to dealing with these issues going forward.” Means, decision was unaminous? No dissent? What's the “more effective means”? https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...

Dan Froomkin / @froomkin: As a WaPo alum, it kinda kills me how much better the NYT's #khashoggi coverage has been. See, e.g.: https://www.nytimes.com/... https://www.nytimes.com/...
Jake Tapper / @jaketapper: Yes, hi, I see all you folks willing to look away from the brutal slaughter of a US resident and Washington Post columnist because you like this president and thus it doesn't bother you that Biden isn't punishing the Saudi Royal Prince responsible. You're wrong.
Andy Kim / @andykimnj: I just finished reading the declassified memo on killing of #Khashoggi. I've read thousands of intel reports in my career in national security, but this one stands out. Here's why we need to take this seriously and why we need to do more to hold Crown Prince accountable. THREAD https://twitter.com/...
Ryan Struyk / @ryanstruyk: SCHIFF: “The Crown Prince basically has blood on his hands for ordering this capture-or-kill operation. It's very hard to hold accountable the people who did the deed and let the person who ordered the deed be done off the hook. I've been urging the administration to go further.”
Kenneth Roth / @kenroth: The US government does impose sanctions on sitting world leaders: Bashar al-Assad of Syria, Kim Jong-un of North Korea, Nicolás Maduro of Venezuela; and (previously) Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe. Why should allies like the Saudi crown prince be exempt? https://www.nytimes.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Karen DeYoung / Washington Post: Saudi crown prince approved operation that led to death of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, U.S. intelligence report concludes
Tammy Duckworth / @senduckworth: This report confirms what we already knew: MBS directed the brutal murder of @WashingtonPost journalist Jamal Khashoggi. By publishing this report, @POTUS has done what Trump would not, which is to shed light on this tragedy and refuse to play along with a criminal coverup. https://twitter.com/...
Martina Navratilova / @martina: Well at least trump told Bob Woodward the truth about MBS but he lied to us as MBS lied to the world... #criminalMBS https://twitter.com/...
Nicholas Kristof / @nickkristof: My column argues that it's not a done deal that MBS becomes king. Saudi Arabia has had six crown princes in the last decade. If Biden had made clear to King Salman the cost to Saudi Arabia of sticking with a Mad Prince, we might have had a seventh. https://www.nytimes.com/...

Patrick Skinner / @skinnerpm: The best thing the US can do for justice for a murdered journalist and to move us closer to less reliance on oil as our planet burns is to decisively step economically/militarily/politically away from Saudi Arabia.

Kaitlan Collins / @kaitlancollins: “While officials said there's no question Prince Mohammed ordered the killing & imprisonment of dissidents & opponents, a ban would make it impossible to deal w Saudis in the future.
