LA Times Sacks Blog

The LA Times recently discontinued a column and Times-affiliated blog authored by Michael Hitzik. Times editors claimed that Hitzik's work was not discontinued because it was inaccurate, "But employing pseudonyms constitutes deception and violates a central tenet of The Times' ethics guidelines: Staff members must not misrepresent themselves and must not conceal their affiliation with The Times." The rest of the story.

Does this mean that all LATimes editorials will now be signed as to not conceal the author's affiliation with the Times?
