I posit those who voted for Gascon, and support the Times' publishers would be those who support Hamas, even knowing their treatment of the Israelis. Can we continue as a great nation with such ignorance at campuses and newsrooms? TD
. . ."And, oh yeah, [Gascon] was never a Deputy District Attorney. Just went straight from being chief of San Francisco's Police Department, a post he was appointed to by Gavin Newsom. All of that is conveniently left out of the Times' narrative of Gascon's career." . . .Jennifer Van Laar
. . ."As our Managing Editor Jennifer Van Laar wrote:
This year-over-year decline in digital/mobile traffic for the L.A. Times is massive, and seeing the number in comparison to outlets like the Washington Post and the New York Times puts it into perspective. It's more difficult to get advertisers when you're losing readers, and a 38 percent decline in digital traffic for a publication where the overwhelming majority of its pieces are for subscribers only is a very bad development. It's also interesting that RedState's traffic is in the same universe as the Los Angeles Times' despite having a very small fraction of the resources (equipment, writers) the LAT has.
"That is their sole purpose in life, to report the news and topics of interest. The same goes for RedState, but there are some key differences between RedState and the Times: our contributor staff is a fraction of the size of the Times, as was pointed out; many of our contributors have other jobs in addition to writing here, and we do this out of love of country and the truth. We don't get paid exorbitant salaries or get fame or fortune like they do. Yet we beat them at the very game they were a huge part of creating, every day.
"Besides the competition, the Times has another serious problem; they have lost touch with reality and have taken a deep dive into being just another partisan hack of the left. Decades ago, the Times used to have a solid reputation for being truly independent in the face of politics, hitting the right AND the left equally across the board. The same cannot be said of the Times anymore, as they have become a stalwart member of the huge media giant that coordinates with, supports, defends, and runs cover for the leftist political and ideological machine." . . .
Maybe MSNBC will be next? Russell Brand Roasts Rachel Maddow for Her Hysterical Censoring of Donald Trump – RedState
. . ."I'll stop the excerpts there because it's not easy to transcribe a fast-speaking British dude whose using words I've never heard of, but you get the idea. He goes on for several more minutes thoroughly roasting Maddow, and it's well-deserved."
"How silly do these networks look bothering to censor a presidential candidate because he mentions there's an "invasion" at the border or that he thinks the 2020 election is rigged? Who cares? Aren't voters adults? Shouldn't they have the mental fortitude to handle hearing things they may disagree with? If not, should they even be voting?". . .
