Winner winner chicken dinner!
]]>It’s 2023, not 1963 the civil rights era. Los Angeles isn’t a majority black city like Washington DC Atlanta or Detroit LATimes is 60 years out of date. And needs to look at the census.
Angelinos want criminals off the street. We don’t want to be attacked robbed and worse. And we don’t want to read articles glorifying criminals and making heroes out of them. LATimes has made saints out of criminals my entire long lifetime
ahhh..and a “far left/progressive” opinion “newspaper” at that..!
]]>Precisely. One should not be able to tell at all the political leanings of a journalist .. I recall when Dan Rather and others caused a stir when they stated that a reporter imbedded with the Viet Cong should not warn Allied troops of walking in a trap, due to the strict adherence to the code of being a fly on the wall with no opinion .. and yes sticking to it does take toll, but that is the job and the calling .. as with Priests at Confession.
]]>Younger generations do not read. Furthermore, those twenty “journalists” should have been fired, not suspended. That said, I don’t know how the LA Times could become even more amateurish than it already has become, so who knows, it *might* become better.
(But The Prospect is the last model I would use in such effort. That is not a paper at all, but an opinion magazine.)
]]>The reality is the paper has no competition in print media and is in financial crisis.
The owner and his daughter have influenced, if not controlled the content of the editorials with the major theme of “..I know whats good for you / Do as your told!..” As I watch the paper die, as did “progressive talk radio” years back..in this digital age I wonder..will it be missed at all.
