I recently did what almost no media in Los Angeles were willing to do: I covered the Mayor's "race."
See, most LA media are progressive. So much so, in fact, that they are unwilling even to acknowledge rival voices. Some of those rival voices were Republican or stealth-republican independents, but one was a progressive homeless advocate, one was a Socialist Party rep, and one was a progressive who doubles down as a deejay.
I interviewed most of the candidates, went to debates and reported, and tried to draw the Mayor out of his bunker (Villaraigosa's bunker was only slightly less deep then Cheney's).
