Digital What Do You Do After Being Forced Out as Editor of the Times in the Wake of Jayson Blair? By Dylan|May 1, 2006 Share By Dylan|May 1, 2006 Share You go fishing, and use it as a career metaphor in your new book. Naturally. New York gets to the thick of Howell Raines‘ new book this week — despite having to agree to go fishing with him and tour Katrina-ravaged New Orleans before getting down to the nitty gritty. Eventually, they get to Blair, whom Raines refers to in the book as “Little Jayson Blair”: Raines said he pitied Blair. “I would never try to disown anger as an emotion. What I was trying to use that language for was to show some distance and some understanding, as well as obviously the initial anger that I and everyone at the Times felt, that this guy had betrayed the most fundamental compact of our profession.” Fishing With Howell [New York mag] Adweek Adweek
