Another Los Angeles Blog, LAObserved, reports today on the “ever-louder chorus of complaints about [Garrett Therolf’s] coverage from people in the field.” Editor Kevin Roderick, a former Times reporter and metro editor, takes no stand on the controversy, but notes that “I haven't seen the Times editors or Readers Representative (or Therolf) directly address the allegations as yet.”
The Readers’ Representative did respond to my request that the Times correct the false impression left by Therolf’s stories about the evaluation of the county’s child welfare waiver. She said no. I expect to publish her response, in full, on Monday.
