LA Times editor resigns after owner blocked presidential endorsement
The editor, Mariel Garza, told the CJR she left because she wanted to “make it clear” she opposed owner Patrick Soon-Shiong’s decision to intervene in the paper’s editorial process. She said the paper’s editorial board was prepared to endorse VP Kamala Harris and had drafted an outline before Terry Tang, the paper’s top editor, delivered Soon-Shiong’s message to stand down.
