Prolific writer Brenda Rees wants PR types to know about her website, Southern California Wildlife (www.socalwild.com), which is terrific and very well done. She writes:
SoCalWild is a news, resource and information about local wildlife that inhabit the Greater Los Angeles area. From blue whales to black bears, from butterflies to fish, we cover it all! We support those who support local wildlife issues from artists to conservationists and everyone in between...
... if PR folks represent clients who are tied into local wildlife (in any repsect!), they can email information, pitches, etc.
Her email address at socalwild.com is editor@

From LA Observed on May 18:
The Los Angeles Daily Journal has undergone a new bout of turnover in recent weeks. A former staffer says the departures have included page designer Aris Davoudian, associate editor Michael Gottlieb and entertainment law reporter Jean-Luc Renault.
The post also quotes from a memo announcing...
…Catherine Ho has taken a job at the Washington Post. This is a big blow for the Daily Journal. Cat came here a couple years ago and built the labor & employment beat into a model beat for the Daily Journal, writing first-rate stories on trends and developments in the practice that appeal to a statewide audience. Cat's departure is an occasion for happiness too. It shows how the Daily Journal can be a wonderful vehicle for a smart, driven reporter to build a great career.
Full story HERE.
