It is a good trend - hold people accountable for their doings.

Someone needs to check into their trumped up circulation numbers.

Although it always pleases me to see growing cracks in the monolithic leftist media, it seems that an alternative to classified ads must first appear to financially finish them off. Then Soros can spend his billions to keep them alive.

"We recognize and support the news media's freedom to report and editorialize as they see fit," Akre said. "Likewise, GM and its retailers are free to spend our advertising dollars where we see fit." \
Nice to see the LAT death spiral is continuing unabated.

A polite form of the so-called bitch-slap. Nice!

Someone needs to check into their trumped up circulation numbers.Not only that, but 900K sounds awfully low for an area the size of LA. Add to that the circulation that should exist outside of LA (SF, San Diego, Las Vegas, etc.) as well as the thousands of people commuting through LA daily from around the world and 900K looks like chump change. Effectively, nobody reads that rag.

900k is about right. It is only 36% white now.

I'm starting to think that newpapers operate at a loss and are being propped up by other divisions of the media empires. Who needs a newspaper when you have the net and custom news ?

I haven't subscribed to a paper for ten years and dumped tv in '97. I'm more informed now than I ever was.
BTW, Do you think President Clinton will win another term in spite of monica?

General Motors Corp. says it will stop advertising in the Los Angeles Times, at least temporarily, because of dealer concerns over "factual errors and misrepresentations" in the newspaper's articles and editorials. At least GM is starting to do something right.
To: RobRoy
The LA Times trys to give their fishwrap free to me once or twice a year and I refuse to allow it in my home. lol
