Teacher’s resignation letter: ‘My profession … no longer exists’

[Cleita]

52. Young people don't know the loss. I'm an ordinary person who grew

up mostly in So CA. The most important part of my day was reading the Los Angeles Times. when I was a kid it was the comics. In high school I did have to do current events but I was largely more interested in the fashions and features. When I left college, it was the classifieds for jobs and apartments, but also the news. Then I grew up and graduated to the crossword puzzles and more importantly the editorial pages, and what editorials they were with some of the best political writers in the field. I had moved around in my later years but always made an effort to get the Times no matter where I was.

Then one day things changed. The editorial pages started being filled with Jonah Goldberg and the rest we know of so well in the conservasphere and ....*gasp* Ann Coulter. I really miss being able to get a good newspaper in print, to sit over a cup of coffee before you start your day.
