Remembering Ken Reich
4:36 PM, June 30, 2008
The death of the former Times reporter is generating plenty of recollections of his decades-long career at the paper as well as his reputation for being notoriously high-handed. Times columnist Patt Morrison recalls one her colleagues saying that Reich once ended a telephone conversation with these remarks:
''... and THAT, my good woman, is why YOU are a telephone operator and I am a reporter for the Los Angeles Times!''
More tributes and memories by the Daily News' Rick Orlov and L.A. Observed. Times staff are working on an obituary.
