Romenesko Memos
The New York Times "needs the Guild to loosen some of the arcane work rules and practices that hamper The Times' ability to swiftly meet the challenges posed by a new multimedia era," says assistant managing editor
William Schmidt. "The Times believes it needs these changes, in some cases if only to revise job language more than a half-century old, so that newsroom managers will have the flexibility they need to reposition our journalism for the future." || Earlier Guild
memo.
