Around LA Observed today
  • Parents talk about Kid Nation, high-flown sales pitches for 'artists lofts', and - we're shocked, shocked! - speculators make up the majority of mortgage defaults. It's LA Biz Observed with Mark Lacter.
  • Bad news for Echo Park as the LAUSD uses the high cost of delays ($100k per week) to persuade a judge to green-light home demolitions. Jenny Burman skewers the logic.

  • Our very own Kevin Roderick on KCRW at 4:44 p.m.
  • Chili Cookoff comes to Malibu.
