To protest controversial firing of popular columnist Robert Scheer
"I’ve been a punching bag for Bill O’Reilly and Rush Limbaugh for years and I think the paper finally collapsed" — Robert Scheer, Friday, Nov. 11th
Protest today, Tuesday, Nov. 15, Noon
Outside LA Times Building
First Street Entrance
202 W. 1st St. (at Spring St.)
The Times also axed a Pulitzer Prize winner, right-wing political cartoonist Michael Ramirez. Scheer thinks it was because of his anti-Iraq War stance. But that doesn’t explain firing Ramirez who was solidly pro-war. Another news outlet goes timid?
