Steve Padilla - LA Times Column One Editor - Silver Lake

Steve is a veteran LA Times writer and editor who for the last five years has been the distinguished Column One editor. In this episode we talk about the paper's coverage of the most recent LA Fires in Pacific Palisades and Altadena, the dynamic between good editors and writers, his early days covering crime in The Valley, and some facts about Silver Lake that rarely get talked about when outsiders simply dub it the home for hipsters.
