AUTHOR:
A M Rosenthal, Executive Editor, NY Times
QUOTATION:
The Times is a tough paper to work for, because if we fail to present the news fully and intelligently and with sophistication there are no rationalizations to fall back on—there is enough space and enough money, there are no taboos on subject, no pressures from wicked publishers and boards of directors and a world of land, sea and mind in which to roam.
