After 41 years with the Los Angeles Police Department, the last nine as its chief, Charlie Beck retired on Wednesday, handing his badge and collar stars to his successor, Michel Moore (yes, that’s how he spells his first name).
The occasion of Beck’s retirement has been marked by a good deal of adoring press attention, not the least of which was a 2,200-word retrospective on his career in Sunday’s Los Angeles Times. The story, by Times writer Cindy Chang, noted some of Beck’s missteps as chief, such as when a horse owned by his daughter, also an LAPD officer, made its way into the department’s stable, but it was otherwise largely hagiographic.

Riiiiight.
Just the facts, Ma’am
LA Times. Sad how a wonderful city like San Francisco has a horrible newspaper, like San Francisco.
Sweet punishment. The LA Times office recently moved from downtown LA to El Segundo near the airport. My friends who work at the LA Times office seriously hate the move. Since they are brilliant writers but anti-American, they deserve a tough commute to El Segundo.
