It is particularly depressing that institutions ranging from the New York Times to the universities to Franklin Templeton have refused to stand up for themselves, for their employees, and, in the case of the Times and other media, for the principles of free expression and open dialogue that they purport to serve.NY Times is an interesting use case. I used to think that their execs are loonies who dictate corporate policy, but it now seems to me that they are only loonies to a degree and the rest of looni-ness is tail wagging the dog. Their lower level employees en mass is the tail. They drive this aspect of the corporate policy more than you'd think, and upper management doesn't seem to know how to manage it. Here's what lead me to believe this.
