Bienvenidos to De Los, #Latinidad storytelling @LATimes. Over the weekend, we talked with thousands of community members + readers + subscribers at our live altar ⁦Hollywood Forever⁩ #DiaDeMuertos celebration - the largest in the country. ⚰️🪦💀 We were dying to meet you. 💀🪦⚰️

People stopped by to write messages on custom marigold cards, honoring their loved ones, placing them at the altar, then posing for photos.

This is why the LA Times still matters. Because of reporters doing work like Rosanna Xia. Please don't forget what good journalism can do.

Wrapped up this year's iteration of the Los Angeles Times' Día de Muertos digital altar. A project created by Vanessa Martínez, Fidel Martinez and myself four year ago. It's a beautiful project to scroll through. latimes.com/projects/dia-d…

New today in the Los Angeles Times (link below): An hour-by-hour account of the first 24 hours of the Palisades and Eaton fires, told through the eyes of people who lived it. Grateful to everyone who recounted some truly harrowing and heroic moments — they made this story possible.

Thank you, The Boston Globe and Houston Chronicle, for your thoughtfulness. Today's lunch at the Los Angeles Times featured pizza (sent by the Globe) and pecan pie (from the Chronicle). What a lovely way to show your support for our efforts to cover the awful wildfires. Again, thank you so much.
