Will Texas Observer's new head do more than rearrange deck chairs on the Titanic?

 So, the Observer's new executive director, Loren Lynch, worked at The Nation? Will she learn from it and her time there to get the Observer off its purity potty and start a paywall, online ads, or both? Anything else from her remains nothing more than rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

I discussed these issues in MUCH depth 18 months ago re the Observer, and specifically compared it to The Nation, as well as Counterpunch. It can either learn, or not.

In fact, as I noted in another piece, the Observer has even gone backward in this respect in the last year, removing its "please become a contributor" Javascript screen. I wouldn't be surprised if it went belly-up by the end of 2025.
