The leaked New York Times innovation report is one of the key documents of this media age » Nieman Journalism Lab

I’m not as excited about this NYT “innovation report” as Nieman Labs, but one thing really hit close to home:

Why they leave: They asked 5 people who worked on digital for the Times what led them to leave — Soraya Darabi, Alice DuBois, Jonathan Ellis, Liz Heron, and Zach Wise. None said they regretted leaving. Some quotes: “I looked around the organization and saw the plum jobs — even ones with explicitly digital mandates — going to people with little experience in digital. Meanwhile, journalists with excellent digital credentials were stuck moving stories around on section fronts.”
