Glasser removed from role at the Post

After a record of poor morale among her staff, Susan B. Glasser was removed from her post as assistant managing editor at The Washington Post.
According to The New York Times, Glasser joined the newspaper in 1998 as a deputy editor for investigations and was promoted to assistant managing editor in 2006. Her superiors at that time called her, "one of our most talented and visionary journalists.”

From the Times story:

Several Post reporters who spoke about Ms. Glasser on Tuesday said that they agreed with that description, and that Ms. Glasser, while often demanding, recognized that newspapers had to think more imaginatively had the era of declining circulation and the rise of the Internet. But morale suffered under Ms. Glasser’s leadership, to the extent that in recent weeks a high-ranking Post editor surveyed people on the national staff to gauge just how bad feelings were running, people at the newspaper said. The morale report was conveyed recently to Mr. Downie, who was said to have been dismayed by the findings.
