Inventing La: The Chandlers and Their Times

I’m watching Maryland Public Television – “Inventing La: The Chandlers and Their Times”

http://www.mpt.org/?q=schedule/detail/17904&chdate=2009-10-05

It is a fascinating tale family, journalistic, and political intrigue… Also of note is the dynamic that in the very early days, up until the late 1950s to early 1960s, the media bias of, at least the LA Times, was conservative, pro-business and Republican… Part of the story of the documentary is the transition of the paper from conservative to straight-down-the-middle, if not a liberal tilt…

The MPT web site says:

This groundbreaking documentary traces the explosive emergence of multi-ethnic, modern Los Angeles during the single-family reign of four publishers of the Los Angeles Times. Each used the newspaper to pursue distinct agendas and impossible dreams, transforming the composition and character of Southern California itself; in the process, seducing a nation and the world with a new kind of American Dream.
