Los Angeles Times Launches Sunday 'Current,' a New Approach to
Opinion Journalism
LOS ANGELES, July 8 /PRNewswire/ -- On Sunday, July 10, the Los Angeles Times
will launch Current, a fundamental redesign of the traditional Sunday Opinion
section offering readers an energetic mix of thought-provoking essays, columns
and bold graphic journalism.
"The new title and handsome redesign put the finishing stamp on changes that
we've been developing for six months," said Bob Sipchen, Current's editor. "In
many ways, our mission remains the same as it's always been: To engage readers
in incisive analysis and discussion of the week's events and to stir robust
debate of the ideas and issues that affect their lives. But that hasn't
stopped us from shaking up the way we go about that mission."
The launch of Current and evolving changes on the Editorial and Op-Ed pages are
part of The Times' effort to redefine opinion journalism, both in print and on
the Web, and to more actively engage readers in discussions of current issues
and events.
Current's website, http://www.latimes.com/current, will have original Web
features to complement the print edition and encourage lively interaction.
Starting Sunday, the site will feature a Supreme Court nomination blog.
Current's bold approach to graphic design reflects the provocative, edgy mix of
new features and columns. The cover will be a weekly surprise, ranging from
smart opinion essays written by some of the world's best thinkers and writers
to vividly colorful graphic interpretations of issues by top-flight political
artists.
Inside pages and back cover will contain stand-alone pieces and once-only
elements including maps and charticles, which combine graphic elements and text
to present information as clearly and vividly as possible.
In addition to provocative essays of various lengths that span the ideological
spectrum, the following regular and rotating columns will appear:
* Joel Stein: "Love Your Work," a regular column on Hollywood and
America's culture of entertainment.
* Edited E-Altercation: One issue, two thinkers. Current brings them
together for a spirited e-mail debate.
* The Faith Front: In alternate editions, talk radio host Dennis Prager
and USC religion scholar Diane Winston take pointed, opinionated looks
at religion's influence on culture.
* Accountability Corner: Ex post facto scrutiny of pundits' predictions,
in chart form. Note to chattering classes: You will be held
responsible.
* Word Watch: A spotlight on newsmakers or the media or both who abuse
their verbal license.
* Shelf Life: In illustrated chart form, we comment on books about Iraq
or a sampling of stale documentaries.
* Panel Discussion: Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Joel Pett searches
the world for the week's sharpest cartoons, and offers incisive
commentary.
* Outside the Tent: A rotating stable of writers offer their criticism
of The Times.
* Mediavore: A synthesis and critique of the week as fought out in
magazines, radio, and television or on the Internet. Each week, a
biased observer offers their narrowly focused take on the good, bad
and critically important issues as covered in a specific medium or
across media.
* Found item: Brief verbatim transcripts taken from wherever we find
them.
* News Quiz: Usually tongue-in-cheek but sometimes serious, this feature
lets us come at a news event or newsmaker from any angle we choose.
* The Burning Question: The one question that's on everyone's mind in a
given week -- say, the Nuclear Option -- is addressed by a Times
correspondent or panel of correspondents.
* Debriefing: A Times reporter or editor offers an inside take on a
small and, we hope, intriguing aspect of the journalistic trade.
