Los Angeles Times Has Been Dooped!

Michael Hiltzik the Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist who had his own blog for the L.A. Times has been caught in a fraudulent pseudonym. Hiltzik was identified by a fellow blogger, Patrick Frey who was also slammed by Hiltzik’s multiple internet identities. After tracing the slander back to Hiltzik, authorities found Hiltzik posed as an average internet reader defending his column and offensively bashing his rivals. This kind of behavior violates The Times ethics and sends a very meaningful message to fellow journalists; always watch your back, because when you get caught, the only one that suffers is the culprit.
