@edmundlee This, and the pilot, are both really good. The timing of the pilot and the ad map shrinking are also good foreshadowing. Keep going.

Revelatory.
- Bezos wants The Post to pay for itself
- Tossed back a poorly-thought-out Will Lewis layoff plan
- That would have caused Matt Murray to quit; Bezos convinced him otherwise
- Knows op/ed page decisions cost subscribers
- Bezos took Bari and Nellie to dinner (!).

I wish this was a more hopeful prediction but there are some very big rocks ahead for folks who need to button up their news businesses: https://t.co/Na82TldBcv

Still some tickets left for the @LIONPubs Independent News Sustainability Summit in St. Louis in just a few weeks - attendees can nab this sweet T-shirt (pls note the lion flying the Spirit of St. Louis!) https://t.co/L0wvJ4Fz3e

Honored and thrilled that @LIONPubs is one of 22 grantees in Press Forward's Open Call for Infrastructure projects: https://t.co/EP5xbfDRLB

A big deal for small indie publishers: @dicktofel worked with a mystery philanthropy to improve existing media liability insurance for the field. Too many operate without it, or without enough coverage. https://t.co/7bDIKEDe7A

I don't know who submitted this to public comment on Oregon's awful Senate bill 686 but this is *brilliant.* h/t @ckrewson

FWIW Sewell's piece on the Houston Landing's abrupt shutdown was newsy, detailed, prescriptive and perceptive -- easily the best thing written about a nonprofit newsroom's high-profile failure in ages.

Some news: Columbia University is cutting ties with Sewell Chan, who has been the editor of Columbia Journalism Review since last year

[Chris Krewson @ckrewson]

Easily, easily the best thing I've read about the news industry in maybe a decade. @rasmus_kleis this is incredible. Well done. https://t.co/XBrN9v3urI

[Chris Krewson @ckrewson]

@jeffjarvis weird how Axios just got an upgraded press pass right? I’m sure that’s coincidental.
