R.I.P.
David Shaw, 62; Prize-Winning Times Writer Forged New Standards for Media Criticism
My friend Paul Conley alerted me to the news, linked above. As I've noted before on this blog, during my career it's been a pleasure more often than not to have been confused with Mr. Shaw, especially when I lived in Southern California.
Grab from the obit: "We are in the age of transparency in journalism," said Tom Rosenstiel, director of the Project for Excellence in Journalism and a former colleague of Shaw's at The Times. "David was the first guy outside washing the windows."
I'll miss his work.
