    NYT boss Dean Baquet emailed the newsroom after our story on a top reporter's racist remarks. “I authorized an investigation and concluded his remarks were offensive... but it did not appear to me that his intentions were hateful,” he wrote. https://www.thedailybeast.com/star-new-york-times-reporter-donald-mcneil-accused-of-using-n-word-making-other-racist-comments …

        One was an offense against the NYT, the other merely an offense against African Americans.

        It seems like if you can get to the place where Bacquet is personally responsible for the decision you’ll get a second chance!

        And also, if Sulzberger didn't want these kinds of decisions, he wdn't have hired Baquet.
