    I had no idea you could do a ferry to there. Thanks! Assuming the ferry is from Wall Street. I'd definitely spend a day this summer doing that. Thx.

    A living, breathing owner who paid attention would step in and do something. This wouldn’t have happened under the Grahams.

    Bezos did do something. He hired this clown. And now Lewis is sourcing talent that is the "best of the best of the best." No worries. Problem solved.

    That was my one stop on Staten Island, so I could say I had been to all five boroughs.

    One NY-based friend of mine thought that was more than enough.

    Bezos might pull a Buffett and just sell the paper and walk away.

    NPR reporter states that Lewis offered him an exclusive interview if he'd kill HIS story on the phone hacking. NPR guy said no. I'd say Lewis is off to a flying start.

    Lewis has absolutely crossed the ethical red line. He absolutely has to get shitcanned.

    Will he get shitcanned? I don’t know. But he’s lost the newsroom and won’t ever get it back.

    Lewis also sounds like a massive fucking prick. Certainly not unique in job like that. And on rare occasions, it's needed. But an unethical massive fucking prick with a healthy dose of scumbag is a terrible combination.
