      it isn't like the journalism industry's most famous editors are known for things like belittling their employees, punching walls and throwing chairs. after all we didn't make a whole movie about how awesome that sort of thing is.

        Honestly, it amazes me that more journalist unions don't require anyone promoted from 'a job that is primarily writing' to 'a job that is primarily managing' get a minimum of a month of 1. management training. 2. interpersonal tutoring. 3. therapy.

            As an entirely separate aside, about an entirely different but equally relevant problem: if you are surprised that someone teaching journalism mby did a lot of talking about themselves then boy have you never taken a college journalism class.
