In this bracing memoir, Sullivan traces her life in journalism and how trust in the mainstream press has steadily eroded.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSullivan began her career at the\u003ci\u003e Buffalo News\u003c\/i\u003e, where she rose from summer intern to editor in chief. In \u003ci\u003eNewsroom Confidential\u003c\/i\u003e she chronicles her years in the trenches battling sexism and throwing elbows in a highly competitive newsroom. In 2012, Sullivan was appointed the public editor of \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e, the first woman to hold that important role. She was in the unique position of acting on behalf of readers to weigh the actions and reporting of the paper's staff, parsing potential lapses in judgment, unethical practices, and thorny journalistic issues. Sullivan recounts how she navigated the paper's controversies, from Hillary Clinton's emails to Elon Musk's accusations of unfairness to the need for greater diversity in the newsroom. In 2016, having served the longest tenure of any public editor, Sullivan left for the \u003ci\u003eWashington Post\u003c\/i\u003e, where she had a front-row seat to the rise of Donald Trump in American media and politics. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith her celebrated mixture of charm, sharp-eyed observation, and nuanced criticism, Sullivan takes us behind the scenes of the nation's most influential news outlets to explore how Americans lost trust in the news and what it will take to regain it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Margaret Sullivan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martin's Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/18\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.67w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250281906\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal Prepub Alert\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2022 pg. 13\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/13\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2022","brand":"Margaret Sullivan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44281728205028,"sku":"9781250281906","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/9587\/8628\/files\/9781250281906.jpg?v=1719489496","url":"https:\/\/bookandmortar.com\/products\/newsroom-confidential-lessons-and-worries-from-an-ink-stained-life-margaret-sullivan-hardcover","provider":"BookandMortar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
