Symbolic headline on LAT home page?

It's hard to know which would make Sam Zell happier — seeing so many prominent Times journalists heading out the door, or this headline that the editors have put in the top position atop the blog stack on the front page of LATimes.com:

Your vote: what's the best nude beach in California?

Inside is the ubiquitous photo gallery.

Also on the LAT blogs: Veronique de Turenne breaks the news that her co-blogger at L.A. Now, Jesus Sanchez, is among the laid off. Sanchez was, I believe, in the first class of Metpro minority interns at the paper in the 1980s and was a longtime reporter in Business before going over to the blog. Veronique also runs a photo of the flowers that somebody left under the newsroom's wall of past Pulitzer Prize accolades (along with a note complaining about Tribune ownership.)
