	evansrandomcrap: Sad Story
		Contemporaries of Gen. Otis and Harry Chandler envisioned a city that would serve as a center of American "Anglo-Saxonism," a "white spot" that would stand apart from Eastern cities that in the early 1900s were filling with immigrants.
		Chandler's father as publisher had fostered the rise of Richard Nixon and ran a newspaper universally described as the de facto boss of the Republican Party in California.
		Harry went to work at The Times in 1994 as a mid-level executive whose role, as he put it, would be to "sort of champion the Internet." He lasted five years, departing one year before the Tribune takeover.

		Chandler's real estate ventures stretched from the San Fernando Valley to Mexico; he launched business ventures ranging from the Hollywood Bowl, L.A. Coliseum, landmark hotels and the 1932 Olympics to the local oil, auto, aerospace, fashion and movie industries and Cal Tech, which trained people for technological industries.
		Harry Chandler's son Norman ran it much the same way but his son Otis Chandler who took over around 1960 was much more liberal and open to debate and other opinions which did not endear him with his pompous family.
		Otis Chandler did not place large pressure on his family to live the same social life he was forced to live and it's interesting how they grew up and the relationships they had with their parents.

		Clearly, the loss of the Times begot by Otis Chandler and Tom Johnson was a body blow to Los Angeles, but that happened long before the sale to the Tribune.
		Not local ownership, in the true sense of the word, because the last Chandler to be fully present was Otis.

	California Press and Landlord
		The story of Harry Chandler’s rise to fame and fortune is usually told in the Horatio Alger manner, with the heavily emphasized moral that America is still the land of golden opportunity, and if one combines brain work and leg work it is still possible to become a millionaire—and in this case, a press lord.

	LA Observed: A Chandler's advice for LAT (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-09)
		Harry B. Chandler actually worked at the Los Angeles Times, unlike most of his relatives who own shares in Tribune.
		First, let me clear up misconceptions about "the Chandler family." It is not a small group that meets at "the club" on Sundays, but rather 170 living descendants of Harry Chandler and his wife, Marian, who established the trusts that controlled The Times and its corporate cousins until the sale to Tribune in 2000.
		In Chandler's view the Tribune is unlikely to sell the Times, but says we all should be worried about if the paper did go to a new profit-squeezing owner or an ego-driven billionaire (no names!) with an agenda.
