Is THIS Sports Journalism?!

       Why does the L.A. Times sports page allow a Dodgers story,  appearing the morning after a game, to be so far afield from what the reader mainly wants to know:  what the Dodgers did yesterday; I mean like, win or lose?

       Instead, what did we have today?  Headline:  "Ethier playing like old self."  Oh, Goodie.   Ethier must have been prominent in the team's win!  You could read lots in that article before it came near mentioning that the Dodgers lost!  The sub-sub head, in gray print, Colorado 5 Dodgers 4, could have been easily overlooked while you went on reading about Ethier.

       The story of the game (in disjunctive, not sequential, order), is a hard to read,  gray-backgrounded, side-bar on page 5.  The Ethier, but hardly Dodger, story began on page 1.
