The Los Angeles Times or any paper which seeks to replace it will fail. It will not fail because of some sort of mega-trend involving the “MSM” – though these don’t help. IT failed because it was in Los Angeles but not OF Los Angeles – just like the chicken-sh*t drugstore cowboy types who say things like “As I left my hometown of Los Angeles in the rearview mirror, I had a few thoughts about how I’d done most everything to be satisfied as a true Angeleno:…” and then goes on to quote a bunch of hollywood celebrity benchmarks of being “cool”. F*** you and the tourist bus you rode in on. “True Angelino”? Ha HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA. Suuuuure. Bet you tinted your hair when you moved here – or your parents did when THEY moved here from Ohio or Oklahoma or god the f*** knows where they came from. And you want desparately to blame some crass motherf***er for “ruining” the LAT. But if you look honestly in the mirror, you’ll see that the crass motherf***er is, well, YOU. And the damage is not limited to the LAT. By your very presence here you have f***ed this place up. And now you’ll whine and leave. And ruin the next place you go to – so I am glad everyone hates “Californians” – because you deserve their contempt. Me? Naturalmente, I am exempt – reference point goes back a little further than all of yours put together. Hence my name.
