Talk:LA Weekly

replies: text: i just happened to be talking about the "takeover" this morning with my boss (unfortunately, i work in an agency that the LA Weekly targets more frequently than we'd like), there isn't alot of information out there, but i did read that the New Times L.A. was around up until 2002 (i used to pick it up while in college).  There is an LA Times article i just read today that talks a little about the merger, check it out here:  --HatchetFaceBuick 20:48, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
