Romanesko - "News and information is the new rock 'n roll," says Abrams

It's not often that the subject line of an email makes you smile the way that one did for me. It's about the new "Innovation Officer" for the Tribune company. (Good innovation, like rock 'n roll, is rarely created by top-level executive hires).

Not that I'm related to Lee Abrams. Or Gen. Creighton Abrams (of the Abrams tank). Or weatherman Elliott Abrams. Or to Iran-Contra figure Elliott Abrams, lately of the National Security Council (although he did once send me an email he thought was going to his sister).
