@itsjhyphenm: Tempted to make this my header image on my profile, just to gaslight myself 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
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/...
Lynda Robinson / @wplyndarobinson: When Bezos bought The Post, Baron was contemplating having to cut at least 50 newsroom jobs in the coming year, he recalled. Via @sarahellison https://www.washingtonpost.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/...
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/...

Lauren Dobson-Hughes / @ldobsonhughes: The article literally describes the work of two women https://twitter.com/...
P Vaidyanathan Iyer / @iyervaidy: The very first principle on the wall when you walk into @washingtonpost newsroom: “To tell the truth as nearly as the truth may be ascertained.” Much to imbibe in this interview with @PostBaron @IndianExpress @anantgoenka https://twitter.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/...

Digbijay Mishra / @digbijaymishra1: Several interesting takeaways from this @PostBaron interview, especially on billionaires owing media platforms like The Post and why it may or may not work in the rest of the world. https://indianexpress.com/...
Ashish Khetan / @aashishkhetan: .@PostBaron makes a very important point: “It's important that journalists who are participating in social media exercise restraint in the same way that they would if they were publishing it in our publication online or in print.” https://indianexpress.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. Including the Post's own story, where the only (brief) mention of social media at the Post is framed as an opposition force to Baron https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Tara Parker-Pope / @taraparkerpope: The women of the Washington Post would like to have a word. https://twitter.com/...
Rahul Tripathi / @rahultripathi: There is something called objective fact and objective reality. Our job is to get at that, to publish that as best as we can, and not to be deterred, not to be pressured, not to be distracted: @washingtonpost editor @PostBaron . https://indianexpress.com/...

Michael Kruse / @michaelkruse: “Would we have generated the subscriptions we did without Donald Trump? Probably not, to be honest,” says @PostBaron. “But I think it's largely now a result of people recognizing that there needs to be a vigorous press in this country ...” https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Stacy-Marie Ishmael / @s_m_i: Love to constantly be reminded of how often being a woman in media is an exercise in watching men in media erase your work in real time (Image shows a screenshot of a story from the New York Times written by Marc Tracy. The headline is “The Men Who Remade The Washington Post") https://twitter.com/...
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/...
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/...
Margarita Noriega / @margarita: sadly, this print headline is real and as such is a very real tell. https://twitter.com/...
Gene Park / @genepark: pretty cool to see the only 2 teams I've been on at WaPo both get mentioned in the NYT piece of our innovation overhaul https://twitter.com/... 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/...

Sushant Singh / @sushantsin: The internet demolished media's traditional business models, Mr. Bezos explained in the interview, “but it does bring one huge gift, and you have to maximize your usage of that new gift, which is that it provides almost free global distribution.” https://www.nytimes.com/...

No dissent? What's the “more effective means”? https://www.washingtonpost.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.

Ryan Struyk / @ryanstruyk: SCHIFF: “The Crown Prince basically has blood on his hands for ordering this capture-or-kill operation.

Craig Silverman / @craigsilverman: On Tues, NYT columnist David Brooks wrote a 900-word ode to Facebook Groups. Don't look for it in the Times — it was published on FB's corporate website. Brooks also appeared in a company video, and didn't tell his editors what he was doing. w/@rmac18: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/ ...
Joan Donovan, PhD / @bostonjoan: A few weeks ago, I pointed out Facebook's shady dealings with corporate researchers, academics, & journalists. Several folks were critical of me for pointing it out, suggesting I was lying or paranoid. Here, a NYT journalist, a nonprofit, and a NYU research team are implicated. https://twitter.com/...

Dr. Rebekah Tromble / @rebekahktromble: So many thoughts about this that I don't have time or energy to flesh out today. But I think it's crucial to note how Facebook's control over the money, data—including access to research subjects—AND comms/PR intertwined to make this a particularly problematic case. https://twitter.com/...

Craig Silverman / @craigsilverman: Brooks' post for Facebook was timed to a new report from NYU about Facebook Groups. FB funded and helped facilitate the report. Brooks was not paid for his FB blogging. But he leads an Aspen Institute project about community engagement that has taken funding from FB.

Thomas Levenson / @tomlevenson: One way of thinking about this is to ask if a less prominent NYTimes reporter or writer could do something like this with impunity. I don't know (obv). But my prior is “no.” @nytimes has a star system, and it has done enormous damage to the paper and its readers inthe past. https://twitter.com/...
Alex Howard / @digiphile: “It's not social media that's the problem, it's the ideas & behavior of the people who use it”- @nytdavidbrooks, writing about Facebook on @Facebook. But @NYTimes journalism has shown the people who build & run social media can be the problem, as can features - including Groups. https://twitter.com/...
Keith Olbermann / @keitholbermann: This is a layup, @nytimes. You've been looking for a reason to retire @nytdavidbrooks. He just handed two of them to you. https://twitter.com/...
Jesse Lehrich / @jesselehrich: this story is a case study in how @Facebook coopts academia & thought leaders to do their PR. they paid NYU $300,000 to produce a glowing ‘study’ on how FB groups build community, then got @nytdavidbrooks - whose initiative they also fund - to write it up on the corporate blog. https://twitter.com/...
Peter Kafka / @pkafka: Whenever I have a practical media ethics conversation with peers - “is it ok to do X or Y?” - I try to fast-forward by asking “How would you feel if the New York Times wrote about you doing X or Y?” I look forward to the NYT's coverage of this one. https://twitter.com/...
Talia Lavin / @chick_in_kiev: in any sane world this would be a fireable offense 🤷🏻♀ ️ https://twitter.com/...
Jared Keller / @jaredbkeller: *Why* exactly does David Brooks need to do this? https://www.buzzfeednews.com/ ...
Kari Paul / @kari_paul: As many experts I have spoken to have noted, Facebook groups have been behind some of the largest and most destructive anti-democratic movements in recent years, from anti-vaxx to stop the steal to home-grown militias https://www.theguardian.com/ ... https://twitter.com/...
Julia Carrie Wong / @juliacarriew: Facebook Groups have helped foster and grow: - QAnon - the anti-vaxx movement - Proud Boys - militias - Boogaloo bois - Stop the Steal If Brooks wants to do PR for this product in exchange for funding his pet project, that's fine, but he should resign from his journalism job. https://twitter.com/...
Glenn Fleishman / @glennf: I invite the reader as a mental exercise to picture any of the Times' Opinion writers who are not white men engaging in this behavior, and the explosion of outrage across Twitter (probably from left and right). https://twitter.com/...

Judd Legum / @juddlegum: @CraigSilverman Is Brooks compensated for his work with the Aspen Institute?
David Ingram / @david_ingram: “Brooks' ties to Facebook raise questions of conflicts of interest at the world's most influential newspaper, and highlight how the social network is working to rehabilitate its brand after years of criticism and scrutiny...” https://www.buzzfeednews.com/ ...
Scott Lucas / @scottlucas: “David's editors were not aware of the blog post or panel discussion, and they are discussing with him now what additional steps he might take to make sure that his work [...] doesn't create any appearance of conflicts with his Times journalism.” https://www.buzzfeednews.com/ ...
Steven Rich / @dataeditor: i told the @washingtonpost when i started my own woodworking business because i wanted to be sure in case any conflict of interest arose even though i didn't think there would be one https://www.buzzfeednews.com/ ...
Amanda Katz / @katzish: It's the character guy! David Brooks's post “did not mention recent reporting...that revealed Facebook has known for years that Groups are an engine of polarization and misinformation, and that the company failed to move quickly to enact changes that could protect users.” https://twitter.com/...
@slpng_giants: This is a massive conflict of interest and the @nytimes needs to address this, especially when @facebook is spending advertising dollars on their podcasts. In a moment when journalism is suffering huge financial losses because of Facebook, this is a terrible look. https://twitter.com/...

@nytimes: Is Discovery+ the most successful new entrant in the “streaming wars?” Our media columnist @benyt writes about the app, which boasts 55,000 episodes and 12 million paid subscriptions. https://www.nytimes.com/...
Dan Gillmor / @dangillmor: Wow, what a revealing column by @benyt on how one of the winners in the “streaming wars” should actually (this is my take, not his) be called “Voyeur+” https://www.nytimes.com/... (If watching this garbage is how Americans are spending their time, no wonder we're in trouble.)
Rich Greenfield / @richlightshed: Nailed it @benyt “Whether Discovery+ is another move to make the company more attractive for a giant to swallow before the bottom really falls out of the U.S. cable biz or whether the company's current high stock price will prompt...to acquire other biz” https://www.nytimes.com/...
Felix Salmon / @felixsalmon: In case you were worried how Harry and Meghan were going to make ends meet now that they're not being paid by HM the Q, @benyt pegs the value of their TV deal at “nine figures” https://www.nytimes.com/...

Brian Feldman / @bafeldman: it really can't be overstated how everything happening on twitter now is just tumblr from 8 years ago — except it's more embarrassing because now it's adults doing it, and it's algorithmically juiced https://www.nytimes.com/...

Scott Nover / @scottnover: “My brain wasn't ready for nuance. I was angered by hypocrisy and cruelty; what I did about it was apply a level of scrutiny that left no room for error.” https://www.nytimes.com/...
@phoebewbridg: This is present day twitter, labelling people as problematic for everything ranging from ignorant stuff to sexual abuse really flattens the awfulness of really terrible crimes. https://twitter.com/...
@starkillerqueen: I don't fully blame her for this, but that whole “your fave is problematic” thing taking root, especially on Tumblr, is why a post that was 2/3rds lies was able to poison K-pop fandom against Super Junior for the last like...decade. https://twitter.com/...
Kate Lindsay / @kathrynfiona: a true, genuine gasp at the unmasking of Your Fave Is Problematic, a Tumblr that I personally believe is where all this *gestures vaguely* started https://www.nytimes.com/...
Kat Tenbarge / @kattenbarge: The Tumblr user who popularized the word “problematic” (and who basically invented modern celebrity cancel culture) was a grieving, irrational high school senior at the time they ran their blog. Which basically sums up the entire state of internet culture. https://www.nytimes.com/...
Openly Black Mikki Kendall / @karnythia: If I read this will I find a strange erasure of every pre Tumblr platform? I feel like I will. https://twitter.com/...
@nytimes: Your Fave is Problematic, a popular blog dedicated to “canceling” celebrities, counts Lena Dunham, Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga among its targets. Liat Kaplan, the blog's creator, reflects on her quest to punish the untouchable — and why she regrets it. https://www.nytimes.com/...
Emma P / essays and context: what's the trend? — Somehow I always pick the most impractical clothing for whatever I'm doing.
Jaya Sundaresh / @timeforjaya: This moved me. All of us raised by Tumblr went through this, this period of hyper vigilance about other peoples' perceived flaws and “refusal” to conform to a standard of woke behavior that we were just beginning to articulate the boundaries of. Many of us regret it now. https://twitter.com/...
Amelia / @ameliabeing: dissociating thinking about how this tumblr blog i remember from my adolescence changed the course of of the last 5 years of culture and discourse dramatically https://twitter.com/...

@bartlebooth45: I feel like YFIP furthered and crystallised an already existing mentality. It didn't start it but became a beacon for both supporters and opponents.

Matt Verderame / @mattverderame: This could have a major impact on the offseason. The cap was $198 million this year with the floor projected to be $180M for '21. Suddenly, the chances we see a flat cap instead of a pronounced drop improved greatly. https://twitter.com/...
