L.A. Times is crashing

Things are so bad at the L.A. Times that they’re going to run front-page ads, long a taboo in the newspaper business:

In a memo to employees, Publisher David Hiller said the ads would raise several million dollars at a time when revenue is down sharply, the newspaper reported on its Web site.

Overall revenue dropped 10 percent and cash flow plunged 27 percent in the second quarter, making it “one of the worst quarters ever experienced,” Hiller said. Ad revenue has declined 8 percent this year, he said.

I guess liberalism isn’t selling to a shrinking “Anglo” population. And the burgeoning Latino population picks up their own, Spanish-language newspapers, such as La Opinion.

And everybody’s going online. You’re there.
