12in Retina MacBook Air release date rumours: All-new 12in MacBook Air design for 2015, launching at WWDC?

Matt Taibbi taking “leave absence” Pierre Omidyar’s First Look Media, according New York Magazine. The move comes “after disagreements higher-ups inside Omidyar’s organization, source close First Look confirmed today.” Over last year, however, center gravity organization shifted, Omidyar Silicon Valley braintrust exerted control budgets vacillated journalistic mission. Over summer, Omidyar appointed longtime confidante, John Temple — former newspaper editor previously led Omidyar-financed civic journalism venture Hawaii — president audience products, putting position Eric Bates, former Rolling Stone editor brought First Look editorial director, close Taibbi. The “leave absence” also comes three months I first reported Omidyar apparently ordered Taibbi change strategy away purely covering corporate fatcats (like, uh, Pierre Omidyar) wider mission, involving comedy reporting. Around time I heard rumors Eric Bates also unhappy organization. I’ve previously a… uh… spirited email conversation Taibbi claims, although Taibbi would engage condition words “not publication” — strange demand coming editor site that’s leaking confidential documents. I emailed Taibbi today ask I publish responses light today’s news. He replied: “No, may not.” Here then, little it’s worth, side correspondence, back July, I laid state First Look I saw (with little help well placed sources.) The discussion was… uh… spirited sides. All words mine — you’ll try infer Taibbi’s stated position might been. A note publication / record: I thought carefully ethics publishing even half “not publication” conversation. Given First Look’s policy publishing confidential documents fact seems clear Taibbi wasn’t entirely truthful place company, I ultimately came side publishing responses, Taibbi’s words redacted. I’m sure readers disagree — I welcome discussion. Also, important disclosure: Taibbi previously worked Pando’s Mark Ames Russian ex-pat newspaper, Exile. It widely reported two longer speaking terms. I didn’t discuss post Mark publishing. Ok, emails… [The email thread began Taibbi's emailing deny Omidyar changed strategy. I emailed First Look comment story publication received reply. Taibbi's email headed "Not publication."] From: Paul Carr To: Matt Taibbi Date: Tue, Jul 29, 2014 [Redacted Taibbi quote, denying story] Right, that’s part seems changed. What’s changed Omidyar’s description site yesterday made zero mention wall street. It’s gone finance first politics first. More broadly, happy stay record, there’s clearly something weird going there. Why 250m journalism project shift focus it’s launched? It suggests PO clue handle talent retreating back technology. [Taibbi responded, questions own. Here's reply...] From: Paul Carr To: Matt Taibbi Date: Tue, Jul 29, 2014 I don’t think [Omidyar] took aside ordered cover friends. I think either made decision reasons easier life, blog post first heard change publicly fucked over. Knowing I management style I’m leaning towards latter. But I emailed I actually want understand what’s going on. [Taibbi responded again. And I replied again...] From: Paul Carr To: Matt Taibbi Date: Tue, Jul 29, 2014 [Redacted.] If I waited Pierre staffers respond questions I’d never publish thing First Look. I’ve given PO 48hrs respond before, still got nothing. I’m sure you’ve always held stories indefinitely receive response? As bizarre chain straw man arguments — I didn’t say he’d hired shut up. So, no, I don’t [believe] something made up. As say, would real [redacted] analysis. Here’s I believe… I don’t think Pierre idea hired you, I don’t think you’re entirely sure either. Perhaps looking names looked good press release fit bill. I think you’re tired, I think knew Rolling Stone gig wasn’t going last ever. I think PO offered complete editorial freedom promised blank check build team. For reason, I think Omidyar’s announcement yesterday terrifying you, anyone else works FLM. He’s lost nerve — combination reasons — retreating something understands: Technology platforms. I’ve spoken people known Omidyar decades people worked previous publications — seriously think he’s going back go pals you’re naive than… well, are. I’m tired conversation now. I honestly can’t tell you’re team player, believe crap. I’m sure I’ll continue cover FLM I’ll continue ask comment I do. It’s entirely respond publication wait afterwards bitch Twitter. Either way, I’ll continue read Wall St stuff if/when publish — I read, enjoyed, recent book long flight weeks back. Best luck, Paul [Taibbi responded again.] From: Paul Carr To: Matt Taibbi Date: Wed, Jul 30, 2014 I’m tired refuse actually engage conversation. I’ve laid position, clearly honestly, asked follow questions. You won’t actually address points — keep lobbing back straw men engaging I’m saying. At least you’ve turned corporate flack First Look: Continuing hammer away caricatured version I said, refusing answer questions, demanding whole thing stay record readers continue left dark. The last person tried line attack Pando story Lanny Davis. [Redacted] I’ve told I believe, I’ll humor — enjoyment playing PR flack — saying again, time line line… [Redacted Taibbi quote] I think it’s unlikely Pierre *ordered* stop writing Wall Street. I’d say odds [are] almost zero. He’s fucking stupid. Here’s I said “No, course I don’t think took aside ordered cover friends. I think either made decision reasons easier life, blog post first heard change publicly fucked over.” Here’s question, don’t seem keen answer: Did know Pierre going leave finance post editorial mission would be? If not, doesn’t worry you? If so, reasoning behind mentioning thing best known likely make sole funder boss uncomfortable? A follow-up question: What make fact First Look journalists — Greenwald particular — insist Pierre control editorial (indeed you’ve insisted similar conversation) yet he’s one laying company’s editorial plan? Why wouldn’t job actual editors? Instead $250m funder issuing statement marginalizes one aspect work might sting reassuring world — don’t worry! — intends permit Greenwald continue jobs, decided axe plans editorial sites previously (in video starring him) said would fund. What phrase “editorial independence” actually mean First Look? [Redacted Taibbi quote] I think that’s told first hired, yes. People told lots things first dates. [Redacted Taibbi quote] I’ve never said otherwise. That’s total red herring. [Redacted Taibbi quote] [Redacted] I didn’t mention anything story Pierre ordering stop writing (because, I’ve made clear, I don’t believe would make sense); I didn’t mention I suspect might told hired (because, again, I don’t know. What I know — I wrote — public statements mission changed); I didn’t mention satirical publication hasn’t changed. [Redacted Taibbi quote] A press release job focus be, written man writes pay checks backing almost editorial strategy place hired. A press release odds previous statements focus be; specifically leaving one thing would seem potential make Omidyar concerned. Yes, I believe means focussing far less aspect things and, yes, I believe it’s either choice you’ve consciously made, choice Pierre attempting make passive aggressive public messaging. Your choice denial interesting. “[Redacted]” That’s line Greenwald used challenged whether would write Pierre’s business interests. Clear enough sound like denial, general enough allow focus energies away Wall Street. Do least concede previously chief focus site finance it’s politics “culture”? If *main focus* site still uncovering financial corruption? Yes no? If yes, boss mischaracterize site badly blog post, no, not? [Redacted Taibbi quote] Pierre interfering First Look’s editorial plans start. Every single editorial plan First Look exists Pierre’s pleasure. He sole funder one making public statements intends allocate resources. How possible understand Wall Street well don’t understand that? [Redacted Taibbi quote] Yes, what’s apparent Omidyar’s statement. [Redacted Taibbi quote] I plenty information, printed I knew, giving opportunity respond publication. I’d plenty information set record straight you’d answer questions above. Or better still, stop hiding behind “not publication.” Why, you’re unfairly maligned, won’t let shared readers? Isn’t whole basis First Look make information public let readers decide? Why doesn’t apply conversations First Look billionaire owner? Which leads last question: Have you, first look staffer best knowledge, signed NDA non disparagement contract — either standalone part employment contract(s)? You’re right, enjoyable conversation! Now let’s shift gear get real answers. Paul Despite previously saying enjoying conversation, Taibbi stopped responding I asked signed kind contract restricting freedom talk openly First Look. When I emailed earlier today, I asked anything add previous comments. He replied: “Just story wrong still is.”

There evidence Francis repeated words public audience Nov. 26, widely reported, boy mourning dead dog. So could fable quickly become taken fact? Part answer may topic pope’s talk crowd day, centered End Times transformation creation “new heaven” “new earth.” Citing St. Paul New Testament, Francis said “the annihilation cosmos everything around us, bringing things fullness being.” The trail digital bread crumbs appears lead Italian news report extended Francis’ discussion renewed creation question whether animals go heaven. “One day see pets eternity Christ,” report quoted Paul VI telling disconsolate boy years ago. The story titled, somewhat misleadingly: “Paradise animals? The Pope doesn’t rule out.” It wasn’t clear pope writer meant, however. The next day, Nov. 27, story Italian daily Corriere della Sera veteran Vaticanista Gian Guido Vecchi pushed headline further: “The Pope pets: “Paradise open creatures.” Vecchi faithfully recounted pope’s talk new creation, also cited Paul VI’s remark. But headline put words Francis’ mouth, became story.

At America magazine, Rev. James Martin wrote essay discussing theological implications Francis’ statements level authority may have. It interesting illuminating, based misunderstanding. A number factors probably contributed journalistic train wreck: The story much going it: Francis took papal name St. Francis Assisi, patron saint environmentalism famously greeted animals brothers sisters. Pope Francis also preparing major teaching document environment, almost since day elected 2013 stressed Christian duty care creation. Francis also blessed blind man’s guide dog shortly elected, affecting image often used connection latest reports concern animals. Moreover, media public primed Francis say novel things disregard staid customs story good check out; fit pattern. In accounts, Francis’ comments also set statements predecessor, Benedict XVI, insisted animals souls. That apparent contrast fit common narrative pitting conservative Benedict ostensibly liberal Francis. That may true areas, probably comes animals. Adding insult injury, Times article cited St. John Paul II saying 1990 animals souls “as near God men are.” But that, too, misquote, media critic Dawn Eden explained website GetReligion. On hand, warnings signs: Francis frowned modern tendency favor pets people, criticized vast amounts money spent wealthy societies animals even children go hungry. In addition, pope’s huge popularity led least one instance myth-making: news reports last year said Francis sneaking Vatican night feed homeless around Rome. The pope personally debunked rumor interview last March, saying idea “has never crossed mind” “depicting pope sort superman, type star, seems offensive me.” Maybe he’ll give another interview deflate latest story, offer real thoughts pets paradise.
