“Fair & Balanced”: Trump 2.0 Era Brings New Los Angeles Times Editorial Board, Owner Promises With Fox News Motto Echo

It’s starting to sound very Roger Ailes over at the Los Angeles Times.
Weeks after the paper’s owner Patrick Soon-Shiong scuttled a planned and penned endorsement of Kamala Harris for president, the billionaire Abraxane creator is now putting a whole new editorial board in place.
Pulling out Fox News’ old “Fair and Balanced” motto, Dr. Soon-Shiong took to social media over the weekend to praise a reader’s letter slamming Lat columnist Lz Granderson over reasons for Donald Trump’s election win and then dropped the news of the new editorial board “coming soon.”
He also noted in Sunday’s posting: “I will work towards making our paper and media fair and balanced so that all voices are heard and we can respectfully exchange every American’s view … from left to right to the center. Coming soon. A new Editorial Board. Trust in media is critical for a strong democracy.
