Hayes, Alissa, and Mike are joined by guest co-host Carla Hall, former Los Angeles Times editorial board member, to discuss LA County’s dramatic decision to pull funding from the LA Homeless Services Authority. Plus County Supervisor Lindsey Horvath is making big moves in a role known for anything but. And a discussion about the future of the LA Times.

LA County votes to move $300 million out of LAHSA and start new homeless agency

"We are making forward movement. We must keep building on this and confronting our challenges, together.” Mayor Karen Bass and Councilmember Nithya Raman urged the Board of Supervisors not to defund LAHSA

Preliminary reports from LAHSA show unsheltered homelessness went down 5-10% again

After we recorded, Va Lecia Adams Kellum resigned as LAHSA director

Judge Carter discusses naming a receiver as LA’s “homelessness czar"

LA Public Press: "Unhoused LA residents react to LAHSA’s unraveling"

Patt Morrison asks why LA can’t accomplish big things

Carla's last opinion piece: "To understand homelessness, listen to homeless people. Here’s what I learned"

And Carla’s last piece as editorial board member: "Stop finding ways to kill the Venice Dell homeless housing project and get it built instead"

Nieman Lab: "The LA Times adds AI counterpoints to its opinion pieces and guess what, there are problems”

48 more journalists take buyouts at the LA Times: “Tremendous amount of institutional knowledge lost”

"Notably, these buyouts will further hollow out the Times’ Editorial Board, which, starting in April, will have no writers left,” writes Laura Nelson at the Guild Eagle, the publication of the LA Times union

And yes, LA Times owner Patrick Soon-Shiong went on Tucker Carlson
