Founded by Kevin Roderick, LA Observed is a must-read for L.A.’s political and media elite. News, politics, sports, business — it’s all in there, along with a good dose of media navel-gazing. We have no idea when Roderick sleeps, but if we ever need a late-night fix, he’s far more informative (and less caloric) than that pint of Cherry Garcia in the freezer. Mark Lacter's morning roundups of business news are always better without a bellyache.
