Episode #59 | July 29, 2022: Ted Calls in from Moscow; Paul Pringle and Other Self-Serving Figures at the LA Times

In this week's DMZ America Podcast, cartoonist Ted Rall calls fellow cartoonist Scott Stantis on a shaky line from Russia. Listen to this first-hand account of how US sanctions are (not) affecting Moscow and how things look and feel in the Russian capital. LA Times investigative reporter Paul Pringle, in the news over his controversial book ("Bad City") calling out corruption at the Times and in LA in general, and attacking his own newspaper over a USC scandal, played a key role—perhaps largely forgotten—in the LA Times' infamous decision to fire and smear Ted as a favor to the LAPD. Scott and Ted remember how things went down in 2015 and analyze how few people at the LA Times have much to be proud of.Support the showThe DMZ America Podcast is recorded weekly by political cartoonists Ted Rall and Scott Stantis. Twitter/X: @scottstantis and @tedrallWeb: Rall.com
