By March 3, 2022 -- & presumably at some point before
then -- Albany Times Union editorials would append the
following: "Editorials
are the institutional view of the Times Union. They
represent the consensus of the editorial board, whose
members are George
Hearst,
publisher; Casey
Seiler,
editor; Jay
Jochnowitz,
senior editor for opinion; and editorial writers Chris
Churchill, Akum
Norder and Tena
Tyler. While
the Times Union's news coverage frequently informs our
editorials, the board's opinions have no bearing on that
coverage."
---------------------
podcast
-- editorial page editor Jay Jochnowitz talks about how
the editorial board made their decision to endorse a
candidate in the contentious primary race for Albany County
District Attorney
part of criteria we use...it it
kind of behoves a challenger to explain why the incumbent
doesn't deserve to keep the job that they've had. If
they are doing a good job, they are doing a good job and
that's a good thing... and, if they're not that's the case
the challenger has to make.
