Janet Clayton as Editor of the Los Angeles Times



With David Hiller’s help wanted ad all over the Internet, I’m seeing three names in contention for the vacant editor’s job at the Los Angeles Times. But aren’t we doing things differently now, instead of selecting from the three men to replace the former editor, do something completely different and select a woman for the position.

Janet Clayton would make sense to this blogger, with over thirty years experience as a writer and assistant managing editor at the Los Angeles Times, she would bring a new insight to our newspaper.

When I met Ms. Clayton she impressed me as very business like, and highly intelligent, with web savvy to boot.

We have to look outside the box and do things differently if we are to survive as a newspaper in this ever increasingly competitive market.
