Languid LAist
So, I know this may burn some potential bridges, but has anyone else noticed what Laurel (a workmate of mine) and I have noticed. LAist has really gone down the tubes. The writing is like reading a high-school english project...and the subject matter is not terribly current. To be brutally honest, they've never seemed truely "In the Know" but on the other hand scouring the blog on a daily basis I have discovered a few informative things from time to time. And this is why I come back. But in the last few months....nada. So what give's LAist...uninspired? I can certainly understand that feeling, but hey this is LA...there is always something to discover.

yes i've noticed. i still go there and hope that it recovers. tony pierce does most of the writing, all of which comes across like a horny 19 year old.

Look, if I wanted to read Danielle Steele, I'd read Danielle Steele. And if I wanted to read a piece that has the borrowed intelligence of a high school junior's 'creative writing' assignment, I'd become a teacher.
But I want neither of those things. Listen up, LAist!
