Former Los Angeles Times Employee Denied Access

Former pressman Randy Kantor wrote;

I came to visit the plant and was told that i couldn't come in. What the f*** is going on Ed?
I tried to come, and it cost me $35 dollars.

Randy,

After 911, security has been beefed up at all Tribune properties. Many former pressroom employees found this out, as you did, the hard way. Your still welcome to visit your co-workers at the Olympic Facility, but you must make an appointment with an employee first. The employee must notify security of your visit, with an extension number they can be contacted at.
Next time you plan to visit, call me, and I'll arrange to escort you in for a visit. 1.800.LA.TIMES extension 75624 (pressroom office).

See you soon Randy,
Eddie

  2. I believe the cost he was referring to was the amount he spent on gas for the drive to and from Palmdale.
