Editor & Publisher
On the contrary, Post executive editor Leonard Downie Jr. "is bracing for another election year and what might be the most challenging time yet for the Post and newspapers as a whole," writes Joe Strupp. Some Downie quotes:
> "My role is not to be in the public eye. I am not a celebrity type. There is a party circuit in Washington where the same 50 people turn up, but I don't. My free time is precious to me."
> Re his book: "It doesn't have a due date because it doesn't have a publisher. But I have an agent and we will see if it is anything anyone wants to do."
> Re WP vs. NYT: "We have different audiences and we are a local-circulation paper, and their audience is much more elite. Our local circulation is much higher than theirs, and we cover everyone from the elite on down."
