Yeah, they think they're being clever about it. A fake editorial.

I feel so much better the LAT did not participate, and spent a whole page telling us how terrible Trump is & how he is saying mean things about reporters, but the LAT is not participating.

There used to be a conservative newspaper in the San Fernando valley. Newspapers are only good for lining my catbox.

“The Los Angeles Times is not participating in today’s nationwide editorial page protest...”

you really can’t blame them for not participating ... no doubt such participation would have to preempt their regularly scheduled anti-Trump editorial ...

A ray of sanity sneaks through even to the LA Times:

“The president himself already treats the media as a cabal — ‘enemies of the people,’ he has called us, suggesting over and over that we’re in cahoots to do damage to the country. The idea of joining together to protest him seems almost to encourage that kind of conspiracy thinking by the president and his loyalists.”

So what and who cares? It is just another media rag.

We still believe that. Nevertheless, the editorial board decided not to write about the subject on this particular Thursday because we cherish our independence.

In other words, The LAT won’t follow the crowd in protesting Trump. Oh look. They ARE part of the crowd.

The Unabomber has demanded that we publish his manifesto. We are standing firm and refusing to cave into his demand, to publish the following manifesto... (editorial cont’d after 40 page manifesto)”

In return I will refrain from criticizing the lying, sleazy, America-hating, fake news organization called the LAT today. If others want to attack them today, feel free to do so. But I won’t say anything bad about the scumbags who work at the LAT.

More than 300 newspapers around the country will participate today in a group protest of President Trump’s frequent (AND WELL DESERVED) attacks on the news media.

Fixed it.

It’s not like we in the media coordinate, or anything like that. Or collude...certainly not that!

I was kind of hoping they simply wouldn’t write any editorials, and thus improve the collective IQ of their readers.

No such luck.
