Breaking News: Dan Lippiatt Leaves the LA Times

Yes it’s true, after forty-two years at the Los Angeles Times Dan Lippiatt has called it quits and retired. What makes this so unusual is the downsizing that has occurred since the Tribune Company bought the Times Mirror Company, seems no one retires any longer due to buyouts, voluntary leaves, etc.

Here’s wishing Dan the best in retirement and the freedom to do as he pleases now.
