I'm not trying to be mean, I think this is an artifact of being a national paper in the digital age; individuals who are good writers, good opinion havers, good researches, good scoop-getters are of more organizational relevance than deep knowledge & it's just... a thing...Permalink On twitter.com

Structurally deep knowledge of a field or area or neighborhood are difficult to fit into large journalistic organizations in general I think, especially when particular beats are seen as more senior than others...Permalink On twitter.com

I think this sucks & I don't know how to fix it, but also it is good in some ways too. Should the NYT scoop up all of journalism's experts? I mean... no, that's what specialty publications are great for. It just does get frustrating to see NYT going Reader's Digest on a topic.Permalink On twitter.com

Broad rather than deep is also likely the real big unaccounted impact of a journalistic industry where the majority of workers start with doing quick hits and work their way up.

All the more reason to shift ads towards Viewability. Going deep means deep engagement and more time on page instead of more pageviews. But I don't think that totally explains it either. There's just a lot of things to read and a lot of things to do and not enough time...Permalink On twitter.com

Sometimes they do the big deep important articles and that's great too.Permalink On twitter.com

PS: The reason this is a thread is b/c I wish more people would think publicly in print about how digital and programmatic advertising has shifted media organizational structures indirectly in ways that are not obvious or about 'clickbait'.Permalink On twitter.com

I wish we lived in a world where NYT had a section of "Do you think this is interesting? Here's other publications that have gone more in depth & are focused on the space with more." My dream NYT page is half RSS feed reader, half news article. But that's a whole other thread.On twitter.com
