really upsetting to see former Wikimedia Foundation director and CEO Katherine Maher getting targeted by the rightwing outrage machine in her new role as NPR CEO. she's wonderful, and NPR is lucky to have her. i hope they stand behind her.
This will, at best, prompt what journalism failures sometimes do:
1. Seminars, panel discussions and essays in which those who failed say "On reflection, we should have done it differently."
2. Those same people doing the exact same thing the next time.
Journalism is like the Keystone Kops, if the Keystone Kops had sat around between movies going "On reflection, we shouldn't have parked the squad car on the railroad tracks."
