The LA Times.
The only reason not to evict California from the Union.
I used to read the Sunday edition, every single page, during my bus commute to work when I lived in Long Beach. That is the only thing I miss about living in Southern California.
Nice to see things at that paper haven't changed much in the last 20 years. They still have mountains of integrity.
Aside: although unnamed in the column, Fox News is the poster child for "journalistic pornography".

The soul and substance of what customarily ranks as patriotism is moral cowardice and always has been...We have thrown away the most valuable asset we had-- the individual's right to oppose both flag and country when he (just he, by himself) believed them to be in the wrong. We have thrown it away; and with it all that was really respectable about that grotesque and laughable word, Patriotism.
- Mark Twain, "Monarchical and Republican Patriotism"
