In my post this morning on Jim Rainey's Times column about the local media crossover efforts we've been following, I forgot to mention one that Rainey left out. That is the Center for Public Accountability started at Service Employees International Union Local 721, with ex-L.A. Times investigatIve reporter Ted Rohrlich doing the editorial heavy lifting. Earlier this month the center posted an investigation concluding that $22 million in extra costs have or will be incurred to benefit insiders at the non-profit Tarzana Treatment Center. A follow-up was posted today. Rohrlich left the Times earlier this year.
