Does the “L.A.” Stand for “Lying Asses”?

By Texas Rainmaker on Immigration

The L.A. Times gets caught passing off agenda-driven propaganda as journalism… again!

The article highlights an “average contractor” who just can’t seem to find any red-blooded Americans to dig ditches for $34/hour. Yes, that’s $34 an HOUR.


<<< Cyndi Smallwood is looking for a few strong men for her landscaping company. Guys with no fear of a hot sun, who can shovel dirt all day long. She’ll pay as much as $34 an hour.

She can’t find them. >>>

Poor little Cyndi. Of course, if you only read the L.A. Times’ version of this story, you’d likely be wondering what’s wrong with our society that a poor, little woman who owns a contruction company can’t find any decent, strapping, young men to help her business. Of course, if you’re reading this right now, you’re not stupid enough to rely solely on MSM for your news. And here’s why:


<<< But it turns out there’s a tiny bit more to the story that the LA Times isn’t telling you. Reader Christopher L. wrote this morning to point out that a simple Google search shows that Cyndi Smallwood is president of the Orange County chapter of the California Landscape Contractors Association, and is a member of the association’s “Immigration Task Force.” The activist group opposes the “Punitive Immigration Reform Bill Proposed by Rep. Sensenbrenner.” >>>

And that’s not all…

<<< Turns out Smallwood is quite a busy, savvy p.r. agent for the open-borders lobby. Conor links to articles (see last 3 links) on her political activities, and observes:

If traveling to Washington DC to lobby for a trade association, planting pro-guest worker program quotes in multiple press outlets and backing a specific faction in the immigration reform debate is considered ambivalence on immigration reform I’d like to see the Times version of an activist! >>>

It seems there are a lot of titles the L.A. Times can’t quite comprehend… apparently “journalist” is just one of them.
