George Solomon — the legendary Washington Post sports editor who helped cultivate the newsroom culture that eventually inspired PTI — reflected on the Post’s decision to shutter its sports section and eliminate most of its staff.
“We lost something very, very big today… and they ought to correct it.”

Growing up reading the Post, I didn’t realize it wasn’t like this in other cities. I didn’t know how lucky we were to enjoy giants of their craft like Kornheiser, Wilbon, Boswell, Kindred & Feinstein. George Solomon, who I am lucky to now call a friend, at the helm of an unrivaled room.
Sally Jenkins and Barry Svrluga, among many, later continued the tradition that apparently ends today? It’s hard to process that notion. Everything changes, but the greatness of that newsroom isn’t something that ever becomes outdated or unnecessary.

Spring All-Mets!!
Our third and final spread of the year is out now. It felt only right to close things out with a yearbook vibe.
A special shoutout to @briannaschroer on design and Toni Sandys on photos. And to our POYs for showing off their art skills.
In an area brimming with talent, they were in a class of their own.
Meet the Spring 2025 All-Mets.
