Like Los Angeles, the Times tends to sprawl: 350 columns of news a day vs. 160 for the New York Times, and stories that "jump" from page to page to page before concluding. "You don't read the Los Angeles Times," jokes a subscriber. "You weigh it." Yet the Times has become known as a writers' paper, running well-researched stories averaging 2,000 words daily. "No one else is doing that kind of newspaper journalism," boasts Chandler. "It's analogous to a daily newsmagazine...

The truth is, any Boston sports fan would endure Zimmer if he was masterful enough to guide...
After two years of investigation and the expenditure of $5.4 million, the House Select Committee on Assassinations last week released a final, 686-page report on the murders of President John F. Kennedy and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. The study finds, with an unseemly amount of fanfare and self-justification, that both assassinations were the result of "probable" conspiracies. But the committee's conclusion appears to have outstripped its evidence...
