"Ever since Rupert Murdoch bought Dow Jones from the Bancroft family, staffers at The Wall Street Journal have lived in fear of seeing their unique culture dismantled -- not unreasonably, given Murdoch's public critiques of the paper's long stories and its baroque editing process.
But perhaps nothing since the ouster of managing editor Marcus Brauchli almost a year ago has done so much to crystallize that fear as a memo sent last Thursday by Brauchli's successor, Robert Thomson. On the face of it, the memo was no different from any number of edicts issued by his predecessors: Thomson urged Journal reporters to contribute more breaking news to Dow Jones Newswires and previewed a new system that will facilitate their doing so."
