A message to LA Times readers

This is a re-post of an email letter from Davan Maharaj, Editor-in-Chief and Publisher of the Los Angeles Times

A message to our readers.

We have just completed a historic presidential election, with major implications for the nation and our state. But for all of us — citizens and journalists alike — the next chapter of our history is now unfolding.

Throughout the campaign, the Los Angeles Times remained committed to fair and accurate coverage, while keeping our sights on the issues most important to our readers.

It is heartening that so many people, a record 9 million visits, turned to us on election day. We added 2,000 new digital subscribers that week. And thousands more signed up for a trial subscription on latimes.com.

Now that the election is history, we are redoubling our efforts to report on the Trump administration and California’s unique role in our nation. We are committed to covering the administration with rigor, accuracy and fairness.

We have been able to do this critical work with the support from our readers. Please consider subscribing now by clicking here.

Sincerely,

Davan Maharaj
