About the Knight Ridder Washington bureau

Here's a piece that will help introduce you to the KR Washington bureau. As we've said publicly, we expect to integrate it with our DC bureau, with David Westphal in charge. Many details obviously remain to be determined, and our top editors will be meeting in Sacramento next week to talk about that, and other things.

It's hardly new, but among the takeaways is what the science types at our national laboratory cal suffering from the "not invented here" syndrome — NIH.
Having been led astray in recent years by both the NY Times and Washington Post, we ought to know better. But the fact the "big media" ignored what wasn't their own work by not using/reporting on the K-R bureau's stories shows we haven't learned much as an industry.
Glad they're now part of us.
