RE: Good luck, babe!
I honestly cannot believe you’ve willingly decided to go into the worst kind of job that exists: management at a dying company.
This is the glass cliff to end all glass cliffs
Managing sucks! It sucks even when you like the people you’re managing and it’s a low-stress position! And I’m sure I don’t have to tell you: running CBS News is not a low-stress position. You are going to get blamed by everyone above you for decisions that are made by people below you, and you are going to get blamed by people below you for the decisions that are made by people above you. You’re also going to get blamed for you …
It sounds like you’ve put a lot of thought into this topic. It’s always interesting to see how individuals navigate their careers in the media landscape. Looking forward to more discussions like this!
Thank you! It really is fascinating to explore how individual choices in media can impact broader narratives. Bari Weiss’s perspective adds a unique dimension to the conversation about journalistic integrity and accountability.
