. I just put a copy of my subscription order to the Daily News in the postage paid return envelope and send that in

Great tactic!

I haven't taken the LA Times in 20 years. Some of Paul Conrad's editorial cartoons concerning Ronald Reagan were so far over the top that I called and cancelled. It wasn't the first time, but I've never gone back.

When subscriptions people call, I make it a point of telling them that the Los Angeles Times is so radically left that I can relate to very little of it's content.

i cancelled my subscription to the los angeles times, on the telephone.

their subscription department is located north of chicago, in wisconsin. consequently, their employees make more sense than the los angeles socialists.

they were interested and i explained that the los angeles times' coverage of:

o daryl issa in may of 1998 the times in a front page report claimed issa had killed his business partner back in indiana. (common sense would tell you that if true, the police would have arrested him and a trial would have been convened.),
o and the censored george will column in 2001,

o and this election intrusion by the times violated the public trust set forth by the founding fathers.

You know I told the Trib I wasn't going to buy it again, until they got series about their baseball time.

OOPS they just did.

Wayda GO, pogo!

They're nothing but von Trap slimey flingers...
Look for their latest "hits"

Their world is alive, with the sound of news, sick...
with bombs they will fling for a thousand years...

or

How can they solve a problem like Maria?
How can they stop her standing by her man?
How can they dig up dirt about Maria?
Her broadcasting ties? Her purchasing buys? Her clan?

or

Dough, a year, election year...
Ray, a hope of good undone...
Me, a shame to stop myself,
Farce, we've libeled everyone...
So what if it's a needle in a stack...
LA won't care if we're a hack...
Tee'd off subscribers will fight back, and that leads us to no
Dough , woe, woe woe...

and my favorite:

Idle lies
Idle lies,
Made us feel oh so clever
All our tries,
So unwise,
P*ssed them off now forever!
