Sulzberger named Joseph Lelyveld, Raines' predecessor--a measured manager, liked in the newsroom--to be the interim executive editor while a replacement search is under way. Sulzberger tells TIME he's looking for a "great journalist" who is "an effective leader and a manager"--which, in the wake of the Raines war, may be more than mere corporate-speak. "If employees are happy and fulfilled," he says, "generally what they produce is good." Times employees say they are relieved to have a respite from the turmoil with Lelyveld, who addressed the newsroom Friday, ending with four simple words: "Let's go to work." --Reported by Amanda Bower, Jodie Morse and Andrea Sachs/New York and Viveca Novak/Washington
