Friedman is such a douche

No, this isn't even about the perpetual Friedman Unit or his idiotic perspective on the economy. This is about what he thinks the NYT should be hiring.

Tom, you ignorant slut, most of those people BARELY read one dead tree newspaper. I will bet, however, 30%+ of that group have over a hundred RSS feeds they mow through daily.

The fact is, the newspaper biz can be interesting. Remember Django came out of a newspaper IT group. However, the idea that anyone who isn't part of that cliquish, clueless, pundit set actually reads more than one chunk of dead tree a day is laughable on its face.

That, Mr Friedman, is why nobody wants to work for your clueless organization.
