Nobody says it better

Novelist Carolyn See fires off a note to the LA Times’ out-of-town owners.

So I hear you guys forced out Al Martinez. Good going! Too bad Jack Smith, Matt Weinstock and Art Seidenbaum aren’t alive so you can fire them too.

Why don’t you just cut to the chase, close down the paper and go back to Chicago where you can get back to slaughtering hogs and drinking bad scotch or whatever it is you do there?

From LA Observed, which reports that the Times has been barraged with complains like See’s and now wants to bring back Al Martinez’s column.
