She was off to a solid start as L.A.'s mayor. Then everything changed. What brought Karen Bass to this point? https://t.co/I6N4iq0obz

For a year, this homeowner asked the police and the city of L.A. to clean out the house next door that had become a homeless encampment of people fighting, staying up all night and making the neighborhood feel unsafe. And then .... burned.https://t.co/IjLmMtNztN

If you're an L.A. resident, something major is wrong with your electric bill. It would be easy to fix but LADWP isn't interested.

If you own or rent a home in California, you need to read this story by L.A.'s new nonprofit newsroom. The state might require drastic changes to the area around your house. What do you think? Good science or a foolish, costly policy based on too little?

Mark Zuckerberg really embarrassed himself with this remark.

Every time I think my former newspaper has reached an ethical bottom, the owner of the L.A. Times proves me wrong. What can you do about it? Cancel your subscription and tell them why. This cannot be allowed to continue.

Tune in to the podcast "Untethering Shame" today to learn about how people who never completed a college education can and do lead purposeful and deeply happy lives. https://t.co/kzqTTZphah

@BudgerigarBlgr @davidfolkenflik @latimes I'm doing fine after canceling by using LAist, yahoo etc. CalMatters for state news. I put up a google alert on los angeles news, wildfires, etc. and not missing a thing. I consider it standing up for journalistic ethics at a time when the owner has decided to trash them.

@drpatrick Newsom did this in Seotember 2024, long before you started kissing RFK's bum. California and Newsom were leading the way for RFK, not the other way around. This is why journalism should be done by journalists, not by serially inaccurate billionaires who don't bother with facts.

[Karin Klein @kklein100]

@drpatrick I doubt your bestie RFK Jr would agree.

Great time being interviewd this week on Texas Public Radio by @davidmartindavies -- who has his own radio talk show withou a bachelor's. @TPRNews https://t.co/k9rlvZKXPc

A terrific interviewer on Texas Public Radio had me on his talk show this week to talk about the employer movement to value skills over school degrees. Turns out that he forged a journalism career and became an NPR affiliate host without a bachelor's!

@drpatrick If you read your own paper before this, you would know that the letters editor picks, and always has picked, a representative sample of letters to publish on a given topic. If 80% of letters are pro-whatever, then about 80% of the published letters will be, and so forth.

Go, @kklein100:

[Karin Klein @kklein100]

@triviacop @drpatrick @latimes @nikasoonshiong No, you never did get a straight story.

[Karin Klein @kklein100]

@aliensuns @drpatrick They just hid it the best they could.

[Karin Klein @kklein100]

@PhoenxLights @drpatrick @elonmusk @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @JDVance @realDonaldTrump @joerogan You do understand he's talking about the OPINION side of the paper, not the news pages, right?

@Joe_Gierut @maxwelltani Perhaps it would be helpful for you to inform yourself before your helpful judgment of dumbness. The Times online cancellation form offers very few options to describe why someone is leaving. "Editorial content" is as close as it gets.
