“The saving grace of The New York Times is that it is The New York Times.”
Jayson Blair, Burning Down My Masters' House: My Life at the New York Times

“The Times is a deeply flawed organization and when it stood on its own, without the scrutiny of blogs and media critics, its own voice could drown out the critics. The reality now is that much of the journalism produced at The Times, while among the best in the nation, does not hold up to the mythical status—an ideal that is nurtured by Times management—that is given to it by many of its readers.”
Jayson Blair, Burning Down My Masters' House: My Life at the New York Times
