Actually, they're an establishment, elitist, government-loving paper. As shown by their editorial opposing Prop. 19, which would legalize marijuana in California. It's the same position taken by the Chamber o... I Scoop the L.A.

High-Speed Rail Has Too Much PRThursday, October 28th, 2010Anthony Pignataro: How's this for timing: on the same day that the California High-Speed Rail Authority sends out a press releasing officially announcing that they're getting $715 million from the federal government, the Los Angeles Times runs a story on a new state Inspector General audit of the...

California Disaster ZoneThursday, October 28th, 2010 John Seiler: More people are figuring out that California is a Disaster Zone. And that's even before Prop. 23 loses next Tuesday.

Soros Gets One RightThursday, October 28th, 2010Steven Greenhut: Let's hope George Soros' late donation to the Prop. 19 campaign, which would legalize marijuana, does some good.
