This could get interesting (or not, depending...). An anonymous L.A. Times staffer (I presume) has set up a Blogspot account and posted this place-holder:
View From the 3rd FloorOnce upon a time, the LA Times was a great newspaper, until the evil Tribune "Shareholder value is our first priority" Company bought it. Now, the once great LA Times is like a circus, only there's no escape. This blog will start Monday, Dec. 13, and offer a daily glimpse into the inner workings of a world gone mad.
We'll tune in Monday and see if they follow through. The third floor of the Times offices at First and Spring streets downtown houses the news side of the editorial department: Foreign, National, Metro, Business, Sports and the top editors. Calendar, most of the weekly sections and the editorial pages reside on the second floor. A smattering of other desks are located elsewhere in the building.
