RIP @jimdwyernyt — one of the all-time greats, a bard of the city whose work inspired so many of us to become reporters. A truly shocking loss.
A sampling of his work, including from just this May: nytimes.com/2020/05/26/nyr…
A one-time subways columnist for @Newsday, he had the beat in his bones to the end: nytimes.com/2020/02/03/nyr…
He had Rudy Giuliani’s number, for decades (and had the receipts, too): nytimes.com/2018/06/19/nyr…
Who can forget his Pulitzer-winning work in those crisply printed pages of @Newsday (NY Newsday, that is)? If you missed it then you can read it here pulitzer.org/winners/jim-dw…
His legacy must and will live on

NEW: @jonathanmahler and I went deep on the Murdoch empire. We visited 3 continents and interviewed more than 150 people. This is the inside story of one dysfunctional family and the most powerful media company in the world. nyti.ms/2IePqTo
In recent years, the Murdochs have been at the red-hot center of the right-wing populist movement that has destabilized democracies across the English-speaking world. The future of their empire rested on a succession fight between Rupert Murdoch's two sons James and Lachlan.
Lachlan and James Murdoch have competed all of their lives to take over the company. But, with different politics -- James is more centrist; Lachlan more conservative -- they also were pushing it in different directions.
