LAT still looking at Arnold

The L.A. Times political writer Mark Z. Barabak jumped into the fray over the paper's campaign coverage, apparently telling a class of Berkeley students yesterday that the disputed grope story "was one of the finest hours of the L.A. Times" and that the paper is still investigating charges that he called potentially more damaging to Schwarzenegger. The Daily Californian, the independent student paper at Cal, reports that Barabak characterized the LAT coverage as fair and balanced. He predicts that, as governor, Schwarzenegger will raise taxes to balance the budget. (Via Romenesko)

From the article: "Schwarzenegger's victory, which came because many conservative voters who disagreed with his politics voted for him, is an example of the unusual dynamics of this election, Barabak said."

"They" still don't get it.

The election crossed all party lines. Increases in the car tax, licenses for illegals, overspending and punishing taxpayers for it....

When the liberal/socialist state legislators run against Arnold's agenda (and they will) they'll find themselves gently escorted from their offices after the next election.

The credibility of the L.A. Times is confined to the comics pages. They now have to export their emissaries to Berkeley, of all places, to find an audience.
