The kind of team I’m trying to build at The Washington Post [requires] a varied skillset. They are journalists first — content comes first, of course. You also have to know how technology works, but you don’t necessarily have to be a coder or developer. Conceptual knowledge of how all that works is very important. We need people working in the newsroom who can work and engage with developers.
— Cory Haik, executive producer, digital news, The Washington Post.
