Unimpressed by Jim O'Shea

Regarding Times editor Jim O'Shea discovering Los Angeles...

 Wow. This is really confidence-restoring.

Jim O'Shea knows SO little about Los Angeles that he describes it as "fascinating" ....and then he moves to the furthest beach suburb he can find without actually leaving the West Coast: Manhattan Beach.

I'm SO excited about reading even LESS news in the "new" L.A. Times under O'Shea's leadership. In the words of one of our favorite hometown girls, Moon Unit Zappa, "Gag me with a spoon."
