Per U.S.A. Today

On Saturday, the Times reported that Schwarzenegger had grabbed a CNN intern's buttocks in the early 1980s and had made improper advances to an actress and an assistant director on the movie set of Twins in the late 1980s.

The newspaper reported Sunday that 1,000 readers had canceled subscriptions to protest the stories.

I could and would boycott the advertizers if they are companys whose products are sold nation wide and would also let those companies know that I was boycotting their product and why.

It certainly can’t hurt, but I don’t think it will help much. So many companies are advertisers that any boycott will have to be superficial; it is simply imposable to not use all the products advertised by a major newspaper. Like you I do not live in L.A. or subscribe to the L.A. Times. And, like you, I am frustrated by the blatant partisanship of the L.A. Times. I wish there were something we could do but I guess we will have to hope that the people of California do the right thing.
