Jack Shafer suggests the Financial Times hire 100 Wall Street Journal staffers, then place this ad in the New York Times:
Do you miss reading Wall Street Journal All-Stars David Wessel, Walt Mossberg, Amy Marcus, Greg Ip, John Harwood, and Monica Langley? They -- and others -- have found a new home at the Financial Times. Why don't you join them?
If
Rupert Murdoch succeeds in acquiring the Journal but is denied its best journalists, his prize will be hollow, notes Shafer.
