The (UC)LA Times Sunday, 12/11/2011 "THE DAY IN SPORTS" section featured the HEADLINE, "UCLA advances to final four."
The (UC)LA Times Monday, 12/12/2011 "THE DAY IN SPORTS" section has NO HEADLINE for the USC Women's Volleyball Team. The Women of Troy beat the Pepperdine Women 3-2 in Hawaii to advance to the Final Four.
Where is the HEADLINE for USC?
When will the (UC)LA Times BIAS for UCLA over USC ever end?

The HEADLINE tells it all, AGAIN!
Sunday's 12/11/2011 (UC)LA Times gave the UCLA Lady Bruin's Volleyball team another headline. In the ETC. section, the headline read, "UCLA advances to final four." There was a mention that "The Trojans advanced late Friday night with a 3-2 victory against Hawaii 19-25, 29-27, 19-25, 25-23, 15-12."
The USC victory over Hawaii on Friday, 12/10/2011, deserved better coverage. The victory was thrilling to the last set. Alex Jupiter, the 2011 Pac-12 Conference Player of the Year, registered 33 kils and 26 digs in the victory! Her name was never mentioned in the blurb. Her picture, unlike UCLA's Rachel Kidder's on Saturday, 12/10/2011, was not printed.
Perhaps, the (UC)LA Times can redeem itself from its UCLA BIAS, and write a decent article that USC defeated Pepperdine on Saturday 12/11/2011 to advance to the Final Four.
Could there even be a USC HEADLINE?

The HEADLINE tells it all!
Why does a third round NCAA Women's Volleyball victory by the Lady Bruins over Penn State deserve a 5/8th inch full page HEADLINE in today's 12/10/11 (UC)LA Times sports page?
Monday's 12/5/11 (UC)LA Times sports page gave NO HEADLINE to the USC Men's Water Polo Team when they defeated UCLA to win their history making 4th consecutive NCAA Water Polo title!
WHY? Because the (UC)LA Times is always BIASED for UCLA over USC!

Two HEARTFELT Articles
(UC)LA Times reporter Gary Klein's HEARTFELT article about USC's Nickell Robey and his bond with his deceased mother was published on Saturday, 11/12/2011 on the front page of the sports section. NO PICTURE anywhere!
(UC)LA Times reporter Chris Foster's HEARTFELT article about UCLA's Taylor Embree and his dad Jon Embree was published on Wednesday, 11/16/2011 on the front page of the sports section. Two color front page pictures and another 4x4 picture on C4.

Why is Gary Klein Being Punished?
Saturday's, 11/12/11 front page sports section featured an excellent, poignant article about USC"s Nickell Robey that was written by Gary Klein. Where is an accompaning picture of Nickell Robey? No where to be seen! Instead, there is a color picture of UCLA quarterback Kevin Prince on page C9.
Why is USC Beat Reporter Gary Klein being punished?
Sunday's 11/13/11 front page sports section featured a color picture of a losing UCLA football team and article. Gary Klein's article about USC's victory over Washington is nowhere on the front page.
Why is USC Beat Reporter Gary Klein being punished?
His employer would rather feature a Bruin LOSS instead of a Trojan WIN!

To Whom the Boos Tolled?
I attended the USC football victory over Minnesota yesterday. I did not hear the "thousands of boos" protesting the "two-point madness" that (UC)LA Times sports reporter Bill Plaschke heard. As he wrote in his article this morning, Sunday 9/4/2011, that the Trojans showed the "arrogance that knocked this program to its knees" by attempting two two-point conversions that failed, I disagree! The players did indeed FIGHT ON for their victory!
Perhaps, Mr. Plaschke's statement "As I walked down through the stands to the sidelines at the start of that last push, even ushers were shouting to me about it" (the two two-point conversion failures), misinterpreted "To Whom the Boos Tolled"!
The Trojan fans were booing you, Bill Plaschke, for your blatant love of UCLA and for your arrogance, your sarcasm, your mean-spirited opinions, and your bully attitude toward USC!

The Color Proves It All!
The front page of the (UC)LA Times sports page on Monday, August 29, 2011 featured a color picture of two Bruins and an article entitled "Vanilla Shakeout" by Chris Foster.
The front page of the (UC)LA Times sports page on Tuesday, August 30, 2011 featured a color picture of one Trojan and an article entitled "Primal Scheme" by Gary Klein.
That's where the equality in coverage ends!
There is NO "USC FYI" article on Monday.
The Bruin's Monday page C3 was all in COLOR.
On Tuesday's front page, the Bruins got a COLOR "Season Opener" reminder.
The Trojan's Tuesday page C3 was all in BLACK and WHITE.
There is an "UCLA FYI" article on Tuesday.
