Dean Bekay's Retirement From the New York Times

Dean Bekay is newly retired from one of the most prestigious and challenging jobs in all of media. During his eight years as the New York Times executive editor, Dean championed massive cultural shifting stories on topics like climate change,. Harvey Weinstein and the ensuing Me Too movement. When he became executive editor in 2014, the Times had less than a million digital subscribers. This year, shortly after Dean's retirement, the Times reported a remarkable 8.6 million paid digital subscribers. There's so much more I could say about Dean and his exceptional career, but I'd rather you hear it directly from him.
