Sure, one way to look at the recent movements of LAT writers (film critic Manohla Dargis, music business beat reporter Jeffrey Leeds, and architecture critic Nicolai Ouroussoff) to the NY Times is that the New Yorkers stormed the LA newsroom and took exactly what they wanted, igniting a "full-on war." Another way is that the LAT, crazed with bloodlust from its Pulitzer victories and looking to finally finish off its East Coast rival, is sending its operatives deep inside the Gray Lady to take the old bitch down from the inside.

Yeah, we don't believe that either. Excuse us while we renew our NYT subscription.
