Wakefield Interviews Miami Herald's Fiedler. By geniusofdespair

”Parting Ways”
Above is a link to Rebecca Wakefield's interview with departing Miami Herald Executive Editor, Tom Fiedler. He “Shares his Journalist Views and Newsroom Regrets”

I love the Wakefield quotes (from the article):

“...If Herald-bashing were a sport, Miami would have no problem getting a stadium built for it. In a town short on substance, the Herald is our civic symbol of self-loathing.”

And...

“Our dissatisfaction with the Herald is in part a reflection of our frustrations with living in Miami, among rude, greedy, plastic, corrupt people to whom we often can’t connect. Who are these people? Everybody but us.”

Check it out in the SunPost, worth reading.

I agree. The Herald/Tom Fiedler column is one of the best columns Rebecca Wakefield has ever written. Rebecca Wakefield did a great job.
