Summary
LA Times owner Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong reportedly killed an op-ed critical of President-elect Trump’s cabinet picks, demanding it be paired with an opposing viewpoint.
The editorial, which criticized controversial nominees like Pete Hegseth and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., was replaced last-minute by a Trump-sympathetic column.
Soon-Shiong has faced staff backlash for pushing a more Trump-friendly editorial stance, including rejecting endorsements of Democratic candidates and hiring conservative voices.
His actions are part of a broader trend of billionaire media owners softening coverage of Trump, prompting resignations and subscriber losses at major outlets.
What’s to be critical about a bunch of sex offenders, financial fraudsters and Nazis?
Yeah, I mean all the cancer kids who got duped by the cancer charity that Trump and his kid defrauded are dead now anyway. That makes it a victimless crime, right?
They don’t return their shopping carts
That’s their right as Americans, damn it! What do we pay our elderly to go out into Walmart parking lots in the snow for? Do they not get minimum wage?
