With a history of more than 150 years, The New York Times is currently the third-largest selling newspaper in the United States after the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post.

The regular edition of the paper, one issue each week, from Monday to Saturday, averaged more than 800,000 copies a day, and each sold for $2.

On Sunday, a special edition will be released, which will be a summary and summary commentary on the news events of the past week, as well as many columns in cultural areas such as food, travel, art, etc., and will sell more than 1.4 million copies, which will also cost $5 per copy.

If it's a special festival or commemorative edition, the price may reach $6!

Huge sales and high selling prices have pushed the New York Times' sales to climb.

But that doesn't mean the New York Times is getting any better.

Last year, the New York Times was in the midst of a reporting scandal, in which its famous journalist Jason Blair falsified many of his reports in order to generate sales.

Jason Blair was summarily fired, and the executive and managing editors of The New York Times both resigned.

Arguably, that was the lowest point in the 152-year history of the New York Times.

In order to save his reputation and sales, Arthur Salisberg, Jr., the owner of the New York Times, made general content adjustments and began to pay more attention to the entertainment industry with higher traffic.

And then it happened again.

first provoked Don because of the Woody Allen incident, and then because of the "Fahrenheit 911" incident, he provoked Disney.

After two consecutive years of accidents, Arthur Salisberg Jr. had to make a bigger strategic adjustment.

It is far from enough to tightly remove and replace a few editors-in-chief and deputy editors-in-chief.

Nor will it satisfy the appetite of New Universal, Disney and many more media groups.

Out of respect for the Salisberg family, Donn came to the door in person.

Arrived at Arthur Salzberg Jr.'s simple, simple, but full of historical traces.

"Mr. Salzberg, I'm in Los Angeles, and I've admired your name for a long time!"

Don didn't take the posture of a victor and looked very humble.

Salzberg looked very capable, not old at all, but the bitterness between his eyebrows could not be concealed.

Although Don gave enough face and came to the door in person, he ...... As a loser, if he doesn't show enough sincerity and apologies, he can't satisfy the other party's appetite at all.

Fortunately, he has already made up his mind.

It's time for a massive management reshuffle at The New York Times.

Accidents have occurred for two years in a row, if they continue...... He may well ruin the inheritance of his ancestors!

It has to be adjusted.

Before adjusting, the first thing is to solve the problem of Donn Walker, and it is best to turn the passive into the active.

After a brief pleasantries, Salzberg invited Donn to visit his office, introducing one old object after another in the office.

Behind every object, there is a piece of history recorded.

To be honest, Don was very touched.

From the initial "battle of yellow journalism" to the later exposure of "Pentagon secret documents", "anti-Vietnam War clarions", and "Watergate", ...... New York Times has been hailed as the backbone of American journalism, and it is understandable.

Don was intrigued by the stories and listened to them for more than an hour before he sat down in an antique chair.

The atmosphere in the office is quite pleasant.

Salzberg pointed to the chair and smiled, "That's when my grandfather used to work." It was in that chair that he heard the news of the New York Times' victory, the Supreme Court's ruling that the doctrine of 'true malice' had been established. ”

This was a news case from half a century ago.

In order to ensure press freedom and the First Amendment, the U.S. Supreme Court makes the final ruling that officials or public figures, when suing for defamation by media reports, must follow the principle of "true malice."

In other words, there must be tangible evidence to prove that the media has subjectively and deliberately distorted the facts. If it is a non-subjective report, even if the report is wrong and has caused a great adverse social impact, it cannot be held accountable.

Salzberg's intentions in saying this are clear.

Several New York Times stories this year...... Legally speaking, he doesn't care about the loss!

Don shook his head, he didn't want to argue, because there was no point, he came to receive the "reparation" today.

"Salzberg, if my observation is correct, the New York Times has been going the path of popularization in the past few years in order to expand sales, which inevitably follows the 'sensational news' model of the gossip tabloids. This is a loss of dignity for a world-class newspaper. ”

As an authoritative news report, it is necessary to use objective remarks to express the causes and consequences of the event, and then let the reader analyze the connotation from the event.

Rather than teaching the reader to instill a particular idea.

The New York Times leans towards a liberal stance and has good relations with Democratic politicians.

In fact, in every U.S. election, starting with President Dwight D. Eisenhower, the supporters of The New York Times have been Democrats. This has already caused a lot of dissatisfaction among elite readers.

Salzberg disagreed: "Any media will have a fixed media position, and the conservative Wall Street Journal and the liberal New York Times have existential value and an inherent readership. ”

Speaking of this, he waved his hand, sighed and said, "Forget it, anyway, I won't care about these things in the future." ”

For two consecutive years, he has been involved in content reporting, and he, the CEO, is to blame.

Tang En raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean?"

"I'm stepping down as CEO and retaining my role as president, focusing primarily on the business of publishing, content reporting and strategic development...... I won't intervene too much in the future. ”

Don's eyes lit up.

I really didn't expect that his courage was quite big.

Say resign, resign.

The trend of submission is obvious!

"So...... What will the New York Times say in the future?" Donn looked at him with emotion.

Salzberg hesitated for a moment, then said firmly: "The tradition of the New York Times will not change, we are a democratic liberal view, and we tend to be a Democratic political person." However, Janet (Janet Robinson) is a feminist, and her current social focus should be focused on this aspect. ”

"Janet, a female CEO?" Don blinked, a little excited in his heart.

Salisberg nodded, "That's right. Aren't you advocating feminism in the entertainment industry? I think that's a good thing, and it can be extended to the entire media industry. The New York Times has always been a pioneer in current affairs, and we are not left behind. ”

What a surprise!

The New York Times is about to have a feminist female CEO, so ...... Doesn't it mean that New Globe and the New York Times have a chance to "reluctantly"?

Salisberg ...... This is the next big game!

It must have been deliberate.

Through this means, we will befriend New Globe and encircle Donne, so as to have a more solid and reliable media empire backer.

This incident has shown that political groups are not reliable.

Although the "New York Times" has close ties with many bigwigs of the Democratic Party, when it is directly related to tangible interests, politicians will not talk about the past.

As long as Republicans and Democrats reach a private compromise, the New York Times will be thrown out without reservation, and it will be under pressure from many heavyweight media empires such as New Universal, Disney, Warner, News Corp, etc.

In this case, looking for the new global group of the media empire as an ally is the best choice for the turbulent New York Times!

As a result, Tang En was naturally willing.

The authority and influence of the New York Times are far from being comparable to that of entertainment media.

This ally...... Very reliable!

"Have you already been informed?"

The smile on Don's face grew more and more.

He acknowledged the choice made by Salzberg.

Those who know the times are junjie!

This is the big man who can do great things!

Compared to Quentin Tarantino...... Well, that guy has been in the independent film industry all his life, his EQ is so low, there are so many bigwigs he has offended, no matter how good the movie is, no matter how talented he is, it is difficult to have a chance to win the Oscar for Best Director in this life.

In fact, it may be almost interesting for "Vulgar" to win the Oscar for Best Picture that year, but it seems to be more reasonable to beat "The Shawshank Redemption" and "Forrest Gump" and win the Best Director.

The pioneering filming method of that film is no less than the significance and contribution of "Citizen Kane", "The Godfather" and "Goodfellas" to the film industry.

Maybe...... That's the difference between an artist and a businessman.

Salzberg said: "I have already talked to Janet, and we are gradually handing over power. You know, such a big change of power, especially with the New York Times...... It is still necessary to focus on stability and give her some time to adapt. However, by the end of the year, the handover should be completed. ”

The corners of Tang En's mouth hooked, and he chuckled: "Stability is the main thing? Not necessarily, right? Maybe some more important measures can turn the situation around in one fell swoop? ”

"Huh?"

A look of suspicion flashed across Salzberg's face.

Donn smiled, "Can I meet this Janet?"

"She's still getting acquainted with her new job, and this time ......"

Salzberg was a little embarrassed.

Don smiled and said, "What, can't I give my gifts?"

"Gifts?"

"Didn't you say that she was a feminist, and that the New York Times would tend to lean toward feminism in the future?"

"yes. ”

"Don't you know...... Am I the biggest feminist? Unfortunately, I also support the largest feminist foundation in the United States, the New Global Women's Rights Protection Fund!"

Salzberg looked at Don in a daze, finally understanding.

This kid wants to do something big again!

However, Donn's hint of "alliance" still made Salzberg feel very relieved.
