Bridget the Editorial Sadomasochist

Or at least that’s how I sound in this interview I gave for a profile in Nielson Business Media: “To be in this business, you have to just love the news to the point where you don’t mind working weekends, holidays, nights, overtime; and you don’t mind dropping everything when a story happens. … You have to be the person who will do the editorial equivalent of walking to school three miles in the snow barefoot. You have to put the news and the newsroom first.”

Incidentally, I didn’t remember too much what I’d said in the interview because I’d just come off of working many many days straight and spoke with the reporter while still in PJs (which lends immense credence to my weekly gig at Pajamas Media) and fuzzy socks, bleary eyed and wondering how much Diet Coke it would take to arrive at a semiconscious state…
