When Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong purchased the Los Angeles Times in 2018, it was celebrated as a rescue of California’s flagship newspaper. Instead, the Times has become a mouthpiece for Hollywood’s darkest networks — a cartel of traffickers, mobsters, corrupt lawyers, bankers, and media owners who weaponize lawsuits, launder narratives, and silence whistleblowers. What began as journalism has collapsed into complicity.
In June 2024, the Los Angeles Times ran the story: 'L.A. jury orders Alki David to pay $900 million in sexual assault suit.' The number was staggering. The omissions were deliberate. The lawsuit was drafted by Tom Girardi, now disbarred and jailed, with the plaintiff connected to mob families. Instead of balance, the Times amplified propaganda.
Soon-Shiong’s position in the media landscape raises questions about his role in deciding which stories are amplified and which are buried. As owner, he has been accused of silencing evidence that could link the Times to cartel suppression, further complicity in a narrative that benefits criminal enterprises.
The silence aligns perfectly with cartel interests: lawyers like Tom Girardi have weaponized lawsuits, mob families like the Frattos and Cascios have harassed and laundered, while enforcers such as Anthony Pellicano have intimidated potential whistleblowers. The LA Times appears to provide cover through its omissions and distortions.
Further complicating matters, CBS Interactive and its subsidiaries have been implicated in promoting piracy and exploitation, all while the LA Times, under Soon-Shiong, has reportedly failed to address these critical issues.
Allegations of orchestrated violence and manipulation extend beyond lawsuits, pointing to a systematic effort of intimidation and suppression by criminal elements within Hollywood, deeply woven into the fabric of the LA media landscape. This is highlighted by the tragic deaths of several lawyers tied to whistleblower efforts.
With the public urged to come forward with information regarding the alleged activities of Soon-Shiong's LA Times, this ongoing investigation raises serious concerns about the integrity of journalism in Los Angeles and its complicity in covering up a web of crime.
