3/ A key for me was partnering with people both younger and female. First, @karaswisher. Then, my even younger writing partner, @KatieBoehret. Later, folks like @LaurenGoode. I listened to them and included them in meetings and they gave me fresh and different perspectives. — PolitiTweet.org

2/ I mostly got along well with the much younger tech engineers, product managers and CEOs I dealt with (except for the usual resentment at poor reviews). And I achieved serious status in my field. But I’m 100% sure there was ageism behind my back. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

1/ This is an excellent thread about ageism (h/t @kvox). Both tech and tech journalism are overly youth-oriented. Yet I started my career as a tech columnist at the age of 44. I co-founded the AllThingsD conferences with @karaswisher at the age of 56. I co-founded @Recode at 66. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@mathewi @dskok @emilybell @jbenton @the_logic Yes. Think of how much more vital print newspaper ads were than any form of digital news sites’ ads. (Not Google or social media, but journalism sites.) People waited for the ads and coupons, along with the news. Some still do. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@heidilegg @emilybell @jbenton The problem is that a news organization - digital or print, streaming or broadcast - is much more than just the newsroom, as we all know. The term we seek to supplant, “newspaper”, conveyed everyone and everything from the publisher on down. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@emilybell @jbenton It’s totally true. I often fumble around when talking about digital journalism outlets and wind up using the corporate-sounding “news organization” or the awkward “news outlet”. — PolitiTweet.org

Although I’m a @Patriots fan, I was glad to see the @Chiefs win their first #SuperBowl in 50 years! Wicked good! Congrats to all the loyal KC fans. And, to all my Bay Area friends, be proud of your @49ers, who had a great year with the one who got away from us in New England. https://t.co/g1X5tiMyhz — PolitiTweet.org
