Some of us still remember ten years ago, when then-Los Angeles Times publisher Mark Willes (aka “the cereal killer” ) had the Staples Center pay for the paper’s reporting about said center’s launch. Happily, Willes is no longer at the newspaper, and this time, the L.A. Times’ special section advertising writers penned articles about Staples’ 10 year anniversary. The L.A. Times is still suffering financially, but it’s no longer sacrificing journalistic ethics to survive.
