I spent last spring on zoom calls and at lunch with Gary Smith — @SInow's "demon beatwriter" as @SteveRushin explains him; "Columbo, only skinnier" in @ReillyRick's words. What let Gary ascend the mountaintop? It's the same thing that let him walk away... si.com/media/2022/07/12/gary…

"If your role is to find out important facts and tell them to the world, is that the way you want to spend your day?”
"I mean, there are journalists, at The New York Times and elsewhere, who tweet many, many, many, many, many times a day. Some people tweet about the minutiae of their lives. To me, that’s time not spent actually reporting." nie.mn/3jdZduz
