This latest rounds of discussions started following a this Daily Finance post - Ethics takes a holiday: Newsweek, New York Times writers in swag orgy

It was a really interesting conversation, though I think most of the travel writers in on the conversation felt the same way. It would have been nice to see someone from the NYT step in and chat with us.
