re: #62 CuriousLurker

Yeah, but like I said, wouldn’t something like this be a “stop the presses!” thing? And what about the LA Times? They’re three hours behind the East Coast—it was too late for them to put something together?

Back in the good ol’ days - yeah, it woulda been done. Problem is: it costs money. Current owners are the Tribune Company (aka the Chicago Cubs dorks), and they won’t buy a gumball to improve the content. They’re even selling the LA Times building so they can take the cash, and then force the paper to rent back their own offices from the fucking crooks.

Nobody thought things could get worse after Sam Zell (aka “The Grave Dancer”) bought the Times by stealing the employees pension fund & using it to leverage his loans. They were wrong.
