imo, Jill really needs to keep an eye on him and so does Sulzberger .. reading this article over at NY MAG... this says ... .. Thompson’s handpicked successor to lead the BBC, George Entwistle, resigned within weeks of starting, followed by a series of scandals that rocked the BBC, which eventually led to parliamentary hearings into excessive severance payments to top BBC executives under Thompson and a roughly $150 million digital venture that Thompson said was crucial to the future of the BBC but that appeared to vaporize without consequence. Thompson, it appeared, had got out just in time.

thought maybe I should put this link in which ties to the above in italics [ The Suit in the Newsroom
An unusual Times executive— for unusual times. - http://nymag.com/news/intelligencer/new-york-times-mark-thompson-2013-9/ ]

;;;;;;;;;;;; BY the WAY! . .it's a darn good article! ..... ;) chock full.

......... jeeez, If I was Jill Abramson & Arthur..maybe I wouldn't be sleeping so good ...

and You know, gg must be in a deep down rage. He has spent perhaps a year (no I don't mean a 'solid' year) .. but a year at least ... ragging on the NY times for various reasons ... lolol ..you know, Of course it works for the government .. etc... . .yes, it did hold some article for a year or so, don't remember what it was now . .but then again .....there really isn't anything wrong with being careful about what and when you publish something in a time of war, that's my opinion .. especially when your prestige is as the nyt's is ... they have an excellent reputation for being ... wise. And of course it's still 'considered' the paper of record ... ;) .........I'm sure you knew this ... as you must have wondered why 'snowden' left out the times .......I bet millions of dollars that it 'wasn't snowden .. but it was gg..... .. so another burning tummy for him, he's had several these past 8 or 9 days ... forgive me for laughing .... but every time he misjudges in public I'm happy .......even though the vast majority of people STILL don't get 'it' or 'him' and 'him' and 'him' .......;) ........The Assange family. i always have hope.. ;)

I hope that what they did in London is 100 percent legal .. I find it doubtful though . .that if it was, why on earth would some attorney take that case? ... so they will probably win that one? ......;) puke. and maybe ..... ;)
