What is the LA Squawk Box? And who is its author?

This is a daily newsletter put out by Liz Chou, a reporter who has covered local government and politics in Los Angeles for nearly two decades. It’s meant to be a quick rundown of what just happened, and what’s ahead for the day in local government and politics, mostly at the LA city and county level.

The newsletter grew out of and contributes to the reporting she does on her main newsletter, The LA Reporter, which you should check out too. That’s where you’ll get longer, reported work, and it comes out a few times a month.
