He's lefter coast than Bill Rosendahl, of the endless motions re: things the council has no jurisdiction over, like gays in the military, pulling the military out of Iraq altogether, whatever.<BR/><BR/>They might like someone like Greig Smith, except Smith was on the side of Bernie in justifying trying to swipe the trash tax for cops under the guise of fiscal responsibility, and the DN really, really got steamed over that one.<BR/><BR/>Gee, so no one under 55 reads the L A Times, but they're all reading the New York Times? That's why no one knows what's going on in L A, because if you're not a Republican or working class from the Valley, nor a democrat over 55 in the city, you never know what's going on in L A?<BR/><BR/>Fact is, most NC's and HOA's consist of people well over 55, but they often oppose the L A Times' positions.<BR/><BR/>Younger people also don't often watch the evening news, so where do you think they get their news, from LAist? Most political blogs also seem filled with an older crowd.<BR/><BR/>But I'm pretty sure the L A Times has more online young readers.<BR/><BR/>It seems more Latinos read their papers and watch their media, even the illiterates, since it's broken down for them with editorializing integrated right into the story.<BR/><BR/>Hey, nice spaceship over there in Angeleno Heights, quite a story too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-13233415422823865662007-11-23T20:40:00.000-08:002007-11-23T20:40:00.000-08:00Joseph Mailander said...Here's a news flash for yo...<I>Joseph Mailander said...<BR/>Here's a news flash for you back, dumberass:<BR/><BR/>The Daily News is in English.<BR/><BR/>November 23, 2007 9:15 AM<BR/><BR/>~~~<BR/><BR/>What does this mean exactly, Joe?<BR/><BR/>Democrats don't speak English?<BR/><BR/>Only Republicans read the Daily News?<BR/><BR/>What?!</I><BR/><BR/>Sorry if it's elliptical. It means that the Daily News is an English-language newspaper.<BR/><BR/>As such, it competes along the Boulevard and south of it with the New York Times (popular with English-speaking Democrats). And it competes elsewhere in the Valley the Los Angeles Times (popular with English-speaking Angelenos over age 55).<BR/><BR/>There are also a lot of Spanish speakers in the Valley---it's tough for the Daily News to reach these.<BR/><BR/>So how does it best compete? In my opnion, it best competes the way Bob Hertzberg best competed, the way the Valley almost became it's own city: via championing moderate Republican political positions.<BR/><BR/>The broader point is, it's not so easy to pick an optimal City editor for the Daily News.Joseph Mailanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07753082460547996624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-22591866593027730222007-11-23T17:45:00.000-08:002007-11-23T17:45:00.000-08:00Alan M's conspiracy was proven false by subsequent...Alan M's conspiracy was proven false by subsequent circumstances, as some commenters posted on the linked site and elsewhere. He's spinning to make HIS political bias clear, and if you knew anything about what he said and who he is, you'd have something to say besides a bland generalization. You didn't even read his argument or the rebuttals, but assume one writer spouting off at the mouth has the inside track. <BR/><BR/>It's just as dumb to believe in anyone's conspiracy theories they ramble off at any time based on their own disproven speculation, as to think there never are any...

The problem with our society is we believe what our parents, churches, teachers and government tell us to believe and if we start questioning we are harshly reprimanded, made fun of etc. It is much easier and comfortable to be a “yes” person, this is the position most people take. As our governor Arnold says “Ninety five percent of the people in the world need to be told what to do and how to behave.” To see beyond our tunnel vision is very scary, we have to sacrifice our sacred cows and our false security. Very few have the courage to take that step.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-62110984106981147552007-11-23T12:56:00.000-08:002007-11-23T12:56:00.000-08:00Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen (removes hat, ...Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen (removes hat, bows low with flourish and puts hat back on again):<BR/><BR/>We, if you will, do not all live in a yellow submarine.

Last year it had 15,000 tops. That's what caused the Hollywood Chamber to drop the event; with that level of attendance it makes it hard to get the advertising sponsorship needed to cover costs.<BR/><BR/>Unless Tom LeBong thinks that good ole Bob Barker is going to draw 235,000 new folks it's not going to happen.<BR/><BR/>And remember the reason for LeBong to dip into our cash strapped city treasury to the tune of several hundred thousand dollars was 1) to bail out his friend who was paid to produce the parade for the Chamber and 2) so he could masturbate his ego and ride in a parade.Mayor Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16280670018437708708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-4991920915546862202007-11-23T11:27:00.000-08:002007-11-23T11:27:00.000-08:00Alan Mittelstaedt is a sarcastic wit, in his own m...Alan Mittelstaedt is a sarcastic wit, in his own mind at least. Always spinning conspiracy theories about the Times, hates the Mayor and anyone who ever shook his hand -- if he does take over, more than half of City Hall will shun the DN for interviews or anything.<BR/><BR/>Plus his left/libertarian bent won't work for the largely working class Valley people who read the Daily. He and they couldn't be more opposite. For example, while the working class, blue collar people are naturally always against more taxes and suspicious of government, they are also suspcious of the "intellectual elites" on the westside and downtown, which is the world Alan Mittelstaedt likes to infiltrate and think he's a part of, at least as a nuisance. He has less than nothing in common with the average reader of the DN, probably has contempt for them, sees them as redneck fools along with their basic demands: good local schools, not ethnic and social gerrymandering which drags down their kids' education; pro cops and anti illegals; anger at the leftists who control City Hall. Anyone who reads the reader blogs at DN gets a sense of the "average reader" pretty quick.<BR/><BR/>Mittelstaedt thinks City Hall is too right wing, he's an old leftie who probably champions people like Janice Hahn, Alarcon and the old- style black leadership -- could you find someone more NOT in tune with the Valley majority readership of DN?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-44286945478133838782007-11-23T11:04:00.000-08:002007-11-23T11:04:00.000-08:00Get some sleep.
