Exodus from the Times
Bronx Banter reports that Buster Olney is leaving the NY Times for ESPN. (Here's the permalink, but it doesn't work yet.) Looks like he's leaving because of the way the Times is being managed. If you want to learn more about the scandal at the Times, you can try Instapundit and Andrew Sullivan.
Yesterday, I answer the phone at my Dad's house, and it's a telemarketer trying to sell a home subscription to the NY Times. In general, I hang up on these people, but I couldn't resist knocking the Times. "That's the worst paper in the world," I said. "What do you mean?" the salesman replied. "You can't trust anything they say," I answered, "they print lies." "Oh, yeah," he replied and hung up.
