Like newspapers across the country, the Los Angeles Times has struggled to capture online readership and fight declining circulation. To cut costs and stay relevant, The Times has undergone everything from massive layoffs to well-publicized staff shifts and squabbles to major redesigns. Can The Times remain a prominent and profitable news source for Southern California, the country, and the world? What effect will all these changes have on the paper’s quality? Times editor Jim O’Shea, managing editor Leo Wolinsky, general manager Dave Murphy, and LATimes.com executive editor Meredith Artley visit Zócalo for a discussion on the fate of one of L.A.’s most valuable civic institutions.
