Is the LA Times worth trusting or is it just another leftist media outlet? (NO sarcasm, actual question.)
LA Times was ultra liberal, or at least as liberal as the NYT at one time. Tribune Publishing bought them a number of years ago (Chicago Tribune owner). The Chicago Tribune has a history of endorsing Republican presidential candidates. Obama was the first dem that the paper endorsed.
I've seen a number of favorable Trump articles in the LA Times lately, so I think Tribune's ownership of the paper has made it less of a leftist rag.
