The lider of the editorial board of the Los Angeles Times, Andres Martinez, has announced changes to their lineup. Some, such as CFRer Max Boot are out; some, such as Gregory Rodriguez, remain; and there are some new contributing editors [1] including:
* Tamar Jacoby. What more needs to be said?
* Gustavo Arellano of the OC Weekly. He's a former MEChA member and an apologist for that group. See also NCLR acting in the same role and referencing him. From our side.
* Timothy Garton Ash. I have absolutely no idea who he is, but he has three names, so he must be important. He also won the "George Orwell Prize for political writing", so he should be quite rightfitting with the LATimes.
* Denise Dresser. A "Reforma" columnist from Mexico; I think I've seen her on TV but I don't know how virulent a supporter of massive immigration she is.
* Sergio Munoz. Executive editor of La Opinion, a pro-illegal immigration rag run by Monica Lozano.
* Lawrence Summers, formerly of Harvard.
* Arianna Huffington, reporting from Brentwood.
