Let me get this playbook straight: sully a great institution, hide from staff, float goofy ways to revive it, then retreat, then gut it, then make the editor eat all the shit in public, slink off to the Super Bowl, get spotted and summarily ousted.

The photo that broke a publisher's Will
Will Lewis was too busy to join the call to tell his staff he’s destroying the @washingtonpost sports department yesterday … but he did have time to walk the red carpet at NFL Honors here in San Francisco today. Amazing.

If you're canceling your Washington Post subscription but still have an Amazon Prime membership, you're doing it wrong.

What shocks me most is how much this relatively small group of men knew each other. It is not an exaggeration to call this an elite cabal and there is no evidence they’ve disbanded.

Patti LaBelle rehearsing for her appearance tonight at the #DNC. Not that she needed it.
INDICATOR? "“I’m trying to do a focus group tonight with undecided voters under the age of 27 for a major news outlet. And I can’t recruit young women to this, because they don’t exist as undecided voters.” @FrankLuntz @thehill

Are reflexively doubting @NYT headlines real, or something else? nytimes.com/2024/08/16/upsho…
On his pod, @ezraklein with @NateSilver538 showed how fever-pitch emotion escapes polling metrics. Will @NYT learn from its own reporting? Or just over-index on old methods, that have failed us before? Hey, @Nate_Cohn, how about treating this election like it might be the last?
