If Journalism = War and War = Hell Does Journalism = Hell?
It’s sad, really, how the world of Washington gossip has been forsaken to Paul Bedard at U.S. News and Mary Ann Akers at Roll Call, with more occasional appearances by the Hill’s Under the Dome team and Karen Feld. Oh, Rich Leiby and Anne Schroeder, where art thou?
Anyway, this week Bedard’s packed column notes that the Washington Times’ long-time editor Wes Pruden recently told C-SPAN that he’ll be stepping down “in a couple of years.”
As Bedard writes, “But don’t worry about the Times’s tempering its aggressive style when Pruden departs, around the paper’s 25th anniversary in 2007. That’s because it looks as though Managing Editor Fran Coombs will take over. His motto: ‘Journalism is war.’”
