I have an older sister who sounds, unfortunately, exactly like me, and we sound like our mother did.
From Jill Abramson
Having small children and being an investigative reporter would seem like a difficult mix, but it worked well for me. I was often working on my own enterprise stories, which were not as deadline sensitive.
I am in awe of women who have full family lives and seem to work round the clock in the 24/7 news cycle.
As someone who has spent a lot of her career as an investigative reporter, I'll confess that a frustration of mine has always been that so much investigative journalism involves a dissection of events in the past.
I think as an investigative reporter I had tough standards, but I don't think of myself as a tough person.
I think that a great newspaper is one that puts a real premium on digging to get the story behind the story.
