Maybe they actually have some, you know, journalistic standards. I would certainly hope that any actual news source would not be tailoring the news they present based on web traffic but instead on what's actually important.

Agreed. Plus, even if you're looking at web traffic, watching it minute by minute is pretty pointless, and a bad way to manage a site. It's just smarter to look at the big picture. Anyway, I'm glad to hear that a news site is driven by the news.

Yeah, I mean... the end result of chasing pageviews is the sort of coverage you see regularly on the NY Post site or Forbes.com... salacious garbage about Erin Andrews or made up Listicles. Reply

@Botswana Meat Commission FC: Quite certain if the Times switched things up based upon page views, we'd have a front page filled with Palin, the Gosselins, and baby animals doing cute things. Thank you, NY Times, for going down the crapper with integrity. You will be sorely missed.

@badasscat: It depends on whether your mission is to draw eyeballs to your site, or to maintain an image as the newspaper of record. There's no reason why those are incompatible.
I check the Times front page every hour or two just for giggles, and I look at the "Most Read" and "Most Emailed" tabs. It's an interesting way to look at the site, even if I seem to be more interested in the NYT's page stats than its own Webxecutives. Reply

@Cynical Media Bitch: I often do the same thing. The "most emailed" and "most blogged" lists always get my attention.
