Pros

The name brand obviously still holds a lot of value. And there are some really smart people in the building who really could save journalism.

Cons

The beast of itself is enormous and as such, moving a beast with many legs, many heads and many brains forward, quickly and down a brand new path is as inelegant and painful as one would imagine. Careers here are measured in decades not years or quarters. A lot of "color inside the lines, sit and wait patiently" being asked of young, ambitious staff.

The best last name in journalism.

Pay for reporters is diabolical considering what top executives make.
