Good luck in Ohio, Sir.
You have been a straight shooter with me. The malcontents won't like your successor either.
I'm surprised the Globe is conducting a national search. I thought they favored hiring from within.
After this person interviews for the position and if the person happens to be a male, I would like to date the man and then marry him. Sounds great on paper.
I'm just saying that what the Globe is looking for in an editor, I am looking for in a mate:
great organizational skills and attention to detail, strong interpersonal skills, following deadlines (I like the Christmas lights down after New Year's), high energy and enthusiasm, helping others to reach new levels. So, if the globe finds a single male for this job, I'm available. (It's a joke really).
Dan will never be allowed, nor would he if he could, to hire out of the newsroom. But if they did, my first vote is for Wally. In reality, I'd like to see it go to a newsroom Battle Royale where all the slot editors, copy editors and reporters interested duke it out until there's just one man standing. If that actually happens, I'd like to put $100 on Stair, he's a biter and has a high threshold for pain.
Any updates?
you're hired.
Why not Andy Ostmeyer?
Andy would be the best choice from the newsroom ranks.
