Avoiding The Cliff, Or Why Tom Ricks Left The Post.

The following exchange comes from Ricks's interview with Hugh Hewitt:

HH: Have you scaled back at the Post, though? Or are you just doubling down?

TR: I have. I feel like I’ve stepped off the train about to go over a cliff, which is the U.S. newspaper industry. I’m hanging my hat full-time now at a little boutique think tank called The Center For A New American Security, which is a really neat little place, kind of the Google of think tanks.
