Re: “The Times, They Are a-Changin’”

• No more Los Angeles Times C grade report cards.
• Quite insulting to extremely touchy Mayor Garcetti.
• Report cards will be dropped in Hizzoner’s lap now that Austin Beutner is history on Spring Street.

Citizen Austin Beutner, now the ex-publisher, quietly and craftily continues hatching his undercover plans to block Eric’s expected triumphant re-election by whipping the current Hizzoner’s butt soundly at the polls come 2017 to avenge Austin’s previously botched run for mayor.

“Smiling faces sometimes don’t tell the truth: The Backstabber.” That stands for Mayor Eric Garcetti.

The colossally-bored Mayor Garcetti tries to metaphorically bust upcoming mayoral rival Austin Beutner’s knobby kneecaps, by the successfully pressuring of Tribune Media Inc. to oust LAT Publisher right away before the 2024 Olympic dirt gets a chance to fly in a series of Times’ exposes ordered by Austin that were of course promptly cancelled once Austin’s abrupt firing sent him packing.

Tribune Media Inc. is sweeping ex-Publisher Beutner’s former office searching for electronic bugs that he may have planted there before departing right after Tribune Media Inc. & L.A. Mayor Eric conspired to cancel his Twitter account to cut him off from communicating his formal farewell to everybody under him at the Times.

You may soon expect a “bloodbath” of sorts aimed at Austin’s personal gaggle of hyper-wimpy sympathizer reporters and sub-editors who will be forced to walk the plank on Spring Street!

These above soon-to-be castaways all are assured of eventually being offered nice fat positions in the upcoming Beutner-for-Mayor campaign, bolstered by the hefty backing of billionaire Eli Broad and silent partner ex-Mayor Dick Riordan.
