[media] Murdoch about to launch Left Coast Trashloid of Wreckage

[danny burstein]

but will it be as beloved as NYC's?

Note: It's always possible this is an April Fool's joke that
got mis-posted because outside the US April 1st would be written
in shorthand as 01/04/[yr], and someone misunderstood....

Or at least we can hope that's the case...

anyway:

As someone located in L.A. who's been looking for a new copy-editing job since mid-September, I've been seeing help-wanted ads from "The California Post" for about that long.

(My background is not in journalism, so I don't meet their standards. Which is convenient, since they don't meet mine!)
