We Don’t Need No Water, Let That Agenda-Driven Corrupt Mouthpiece Of Big Left Burn
By Mitch Berg
The LATimes – one of our corrupt activist agenda-whore media’s worst offenders – is taking a weed-whacker to the “news” room.
The other members of the club are squirting tears:
“If you care about journalism…”
You mean, “journalism” like this?
If you care about journalism, bring a **c**n* bulldozer and some gasoline.

Mary Louise Kelly. Hahahaha! Hostess of a self-reflective radio program. Author of a memoir with a period after each word of the title. That alone disqualifies her from making judgements about anything.

Re the book title: I’m highly inclined to agree.

Every time an ivy-league nepo-baby loses their job in the media, an angel gets their wings.

And there could not be a better example of an ivy-league nepo-baby media-whore than her majesty, Mary Louise Kelly.

Strictly speaking the hit piece on Elder is a column, not an article, but I’d argue that even where the freedom of the columnist is at hand, the editors ought to remove some of the more transparent BS.

Looks like the management at the LA Times is demonstrating some of that “care” about journalism by reading the room: If you keep pushing a product that there isn’t a high demand for in the market– actual journalism, versus left-wing activism– your business will die.

The ratio on the post is impressive. It’s amusing to see Kelly get absolutely blasted by 99.9% of the replies.
TBH, it’s well deserved. Even the thin veneer of a semblance of impartiality was explicitly abandoned the instant Trump got elected.
The media gave up all semblance of balance since then. Before then, they’d been clearly tending corporatist as their corporate owners kept having to subsidize them more and more. That’s driven their readers away in an era when advertising revenues are cratering.
It’s a dying industry, with almost papers delivering enough value to justify a paywall. So I’m conflicted: it’s bad to go down to essentially monopoly suppliers in general, but in this case it’s already a viewpoint-directed monopoly so it’s not really a loss.

Many of the folks lamenting the demise of the L.A. Times were pissing themselves with glee over Jon Stewart returning to The Daily Show for the 2024 election cycle. Anyone else see the problem???

If you care about journalism, why are you even reading the LAT?
