One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.


Skywriting is one of those things that’s perhaps better in theory than practice, as these Valentine’s Day mishaps showed.These skywriting fails popped up on Instagram over Valentine’s Day, some of which were for Uber’s $500 skywriting service, as CurbedLA pointed out.

We hope your Valentine’s Day plans went better than they did for these people.

I love you, pee.

They don’t call it V-day for nuthin’.

We love to nappy.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.

You come to LAist because you want independent reporting and trustworthy local information. Our nonprofit newsroom doesn’t answer to shareholders looking to turn a profit. Instead, we answer to you and our communities. We are free to follow facts wherever they lead and to hold power to account without fear or favor. Our only loyalty is to our readers and listeners and our mission: to inform, engage, and strengthen Southern California’s communities.
