The other day, Radar reported on the new Times building, saying that "one section of the fourth floor, housing the education reporters, among others, lies so far removed from the rest of the building that its occupants have put up a sign reading "Welcome to Outer Mongolia." Ha! It's actually the third floor, though, and the sign reads "You Have Reached Outer Mongolia. Welcome!" And there are also a few Metro reporters scattered in there as well. One Times employee describes the education reporters as "out of the loop and humorously disgruntled about it." Thank goodness the critics aren't out there; they'd just be weepy.
