I was struck by Jeff Jarvis’s recent polemic, ‘If I ran a newspaper…’  published on Medium.

In it, he quoted an unnamed editor’s description of the predicament he — and many of us — find ourselves in:

So I am excited that here in Birmingham we’ve at last been given the opportunity to not only build the new house, but to move in and make it our home. At the same time, we’re sending more firemen to deal with the blaze next door. (I promise that’s the last tortured metaphor, for now, at least).
