I was listening to 'Which Way LA' the other day and Waren Olney's guest was saying that Sam Zell didn't realized what a money-pit he was diving into when he bought the LA Times. They needed someone with a firm grasp of the deteriorating situation and a vision for change (that wasn't just pink-slipping tremendous portions of the staff writers) in order to carry this institution into the 21st century. Having lived in Chicago and watched the dumbing-down of the Trib into nothingness, I didn't have high hopes when Zell picked up the LAT.</p>
