Tuesday in CultureGrrl; Today in the LA Times

You saw it here first: my musings on the Yom Kippur sermon delivered by the California Attorney General to the J. Paul Getty Trust.

Today you can see this piece, slightly tweaked, in it's new home on the Op-Ed page of the LA Times.

The newsroom was in considerable turmoil during the editing process, because of this. My editor managed to finish the job before the 4 p.m. general meeting with David Hiller, who became the paper's new publisher after the forced resignation of Jeffrey Johnson. Johnson had refused to comply with the Tribune Company's call for draconian staff cuts.

Surprisingly, the editor was very interested in my blogging experience. She assured me that newspapers do have a future. But do you think she's pondering ArtsJournal blogs as her next move if she gets the ax? (Ummm, no.)
