Bill Keller is asked about NYO's
report that Time managing editor
Rick Stengel is wooing
Maureen Dowd,
Thomas Friedman and other NYT stars. "It's hard to imagine someone leaving here to go there, at the moment," the Times executive editor tells
Jon Friedman. "There is a lack of clarity about what Time is going to be." More Keller quotes:
** On billionaire newspaper owners meddling with editorial: "None of them got where they are in life by keeping their hands off what they owned."
** On reports that
Dean Baquet will return to the Times: "Stay tuned. I didn't want him to go in the first place."
** On blogs: "I've dialed back on my consumption" and "distinguish between the serious stuff and the not-serious stuff. I don't let it get to me."
