"Times are bad at the L.A. Times. Competition from new media and “a lingering feeling of bias” continue to plague the paper and drive down circulation."
It must be pretty bad if it's even happening in a liberal bastion like LA. Or, wait a minute, maybe the paper isn't liberal enough...
*Or, wait a minute, maybe the paper isn't liberal enough..*
You haven't read their letters-to-the-editor lately then. Either the Times only publishes rat letters, ignoring conservative views, or most of the remaining readers are all truly leftists.
To the contrary. The L.A. Times, in 1992, ran a week long editorial special on how to confiscate all private firearms in the USA without violating the 2nd., 4th., and 5th. Amendments of the Bill of Rights. Oh they're plenty left all right.
I bet lots of the RAT voters are minorities who don't read newspapers if they can read at all. The LA Times may be trying to appeal to white leftists, but that only drives away middle class moderates and conservatives.
One part of this story stands out as BS. Why would the LA Times forgo an opportunity to trash the LAPD? Why would they "cover up" for the LAPD?
