The Los Angeles Times has put an unusual spin on a news item regarding a series of paintings popping up near Echo Park (I spotted one near UCLA in Westwood). These posters read: ACORN Funded Prostitution Zone.  The L.A. Times is not amused.
Ok, so these posters are critical of the Left's beloved ACORN.  But what about community activism, free speech and the power of art? Here is just what they claim to want: community activists voice their opinion.  They show their disgust over child prostitution.  No, no, no a community activist would never break ranks and criticize one of their own, so they must not be real members of a community who are taking real action about something which concerns them.  Their punishment?  They are labeled "conservative" and "right wing" and summarily dismissed.
     When for years Leftist propaganda was smeared all over the streets of Los Angeles by "artists" funded by billionaire George Soros and Planned Parenthood, the L.A. Times characterized it as "art."  Who can forget such classics as "Bush Lied. People Died" and Dick Cheney portrayed as Satan?  
     James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles deserve the Pulitzer Prize for their expose of ACORN's deplorable actions.  They have saved the American taxpayer millions of dollars and put on notice other such nefarious organizations.  The L.A .Times writers are too slothful and intellectually dishonest to pursue this kind of story.  No longer do such journalists seek the truth; they simply regurgitate stories that perpetuate their belief system.  Perhaps they are angry at being scooped (along with the N.Y. Times, MSNBC, Katie Couric, etc)?  No, that can't be right.  That would mean that they actually care about informing their readers of the facts.  
     The L.A. Times is famous for promoting what they call "immigrants rights."  Of course, they are dishonest even in their terminology.  What they constantly blather about is illegal immigrants rights, but don't expect them to call it as such. Even in pushing their own agenda, they are inconsistent.  The ACORN worker had no problem giving information about how the purported pimp could exploit El Salvadorian girls to work for him as prostitutes.   Shouldn't the L.A.Times be excoriating such deplorable abuse, instead of claiming that ACORN is somehow (logic be damned) a victim?  So much for immigrants rights.  So much for brown power.
