Russ Stanton at the LA Press Club

The Los Angeles Press Club hosted "An Evening with Russ Stanton" last night to a 100+ crowd that included the likes of Jill Stewart, Mariel Garza, Chris Woodyard, Michael Goldstein, Luke Ford, Joseph Mailander and several other members of the 4th Estate. Video footage of the event will be made available in an update and you can also catch the new L.A. Times Editor at a Zócalo LA event next month.

Some tidbits from the evening:

• In a surprise to many, the Editor admitted that there have been a few internal memos that didn't end up on LA Observed
• He gave a shoutout to the Top of the Ticket blog
• He said the Times needs more diversity both in terms of age and ethnicity
• He talked about the recent "doozy"

We are human beings pulling off a daily miracle and that is not a perfect process by any stretch of the imagination. - Russ Stanton
