Katie Rosman, who is leaving The Wall Street Journal for a job at the New York Times, writes on Medium about what the Journal stands for.
Rosman writes, “I love calling sources and identifying myself as a Wall Street Journal reporter. There is no cooler title: Wall Street Journal reporter. It connotes knowledge, discipline, humanity, shoe leather, ingenuity, style and wit. It has put me, by association, in far better company than I deserve.
“After a decade of days as a Wall Street Journal reporter, today is my last. Change is scary, bittersweet and, sometimes, creatively important.
“I remember asking an editor, very early in my tenure, ‘How do I know if people at the paper think my work is any good?’
“He answered, ‘How do you know if we think your work is any good? You know when we publish it in the Wall Street Journal.’
“A snooty response, I think we can all agree. But his message stuck with me. At the Journal, reporters and editors never stop toiling to be worthy of the institution.”
