Griffith Park fire pushes politics off LAT front page

Sadly, it takes a fire to get the LAT's Washington bureau off the front page of the newspaper. Their mostly partisan articles have gotten so much front page coverage recently that it seemed as if nothing else was happening in the world. Properly, the Griffith Park fire got most of the coverage on today's front page. Inside Section A there were articles about Wolfowitz and the World Bank and the latest lunatic war funding proposal from House Democrats. Surprisingly, both these articles were reasonably balanced, considering they appeared in the LAT.
