Sign on icemaker in the newsroom at the Knoxville News Sentinel. The newsroom is in the midst of a reorganization and redefinition that is called “transformation.” And, no, we haven’t lost our sense of humor.

Are you sure you work in a a NEWSROOM? (We work in the “Information Center”)

That’s pretty good. My shop would have written, “Will somebody please reinvent this thing?”
@Katie: We’re still Old School enough to call it a newsroom. But we have done away with “managing editor.”
It’s deadly serious business to remake ourselves and reshape our culture and retool our operations, but I’m damn glad we have retained a sense of humor about it.
You have an ice machine? We just had to fan our tongues.
