"Fearlessness" in editors is more admired in principle than in practice. (In practice, it's punished.)

      @jason_pontin True, though editors are mostly punished for their real fearlessness by their own organizations. 1/2

      @tvjrennie The punishment comes from all sides.

      @jason_pontin I agree, though I think the internal rebukes are more common because they go with editorial integrity.

    @jason_pontin What editors publicly boast about as fearless is often hard to distinguish from recklessness & calculated insensitivity. 2/2

    @jason_pontin @Nero in practice true re: "fearlessness," or even "independent thought" in most organizations/businesses
