As I mentioned in the R.I.P. piece on political cartoonist Paul Conrad, he managed for a long time to be a Liberal voice in an increasingly-Conservative Los Angeles Times. What I should have appended was that eventually, the Times became sufficiently right-wing that Conrad was marginalized. It was all detailed in Bill Boyarsky's book, Inventing L.A.: The Chandlers and Their Times. Kevin Roderick reminds us what it said.
