This week Susan Edgerley, an assistant managing editor, is answering questions from the public on the New York Times' website. Her job, according to her, is "to listen to the career aspirations of the people in the newsroom and help them realize them," and to help the paper integrate its web and print operations more closely. But according to a tipster with a grudge, Edgerley's real title at the Times should be Shouter-In-Chief!:

First, our tipster goes into an overlong rant about how when Edgerley said that there were never separate web and print reporting staffs at the Times, that was a "categorical lie." Whatever. Not really too scandalous. More interesting is the tipster's comment on this portion of one of Edgerley's answers:

It's more like we moved in together and got married. The Web staff used to be in a different building a couple of blocks from our old Times Square office. When we moved into our new building about a year ago, we had the space to sit together for the first time.

One of the great things about a newsroom is its sheer open space — the heart of our newsroom is as wide and long as a New York City block and three stories high. And thanks to the open design, I can sit at my desk on the third floor and yell to Sam Sifton, the Culture editor, on the fourth floor. It encourages collaboration.

"Oh, and when she says she can yell from her third-floor desk to the Culture editor on the fourth, she is not exaggerating," writes our tipster. "SHE COULD SHOUT FROM THE BOWERY TO EAST HARLEM AND BE CLEARLY HEARD BY EVERY LIVING SOUL ON THE EAST SIDE!"

So we ask: Is Susan Edgerley the biggest loudmouth at the New York Times? Bigger, even, than Thomas Friedman? Informed arguments and speculation are encouraged. And don't feel bad for Edgerley; she also said this:

When Jamie Lynn Spears announced her pregnancy, I was the one saying it was a Page 1 story. I was persuaded on the walk to school with my 17- and 10-year-old daughters. Listening to them talk about birth control and hearing them wonder aloud how the pregnancy would affect the Nickelodoen show "Zoey 101," I was alternately full of pride and terror. Somewhere, I knew there was a story there.
