LA Observed: Eli Broad is not finished with his pursuit of buying the Los Angeles Times. What’s happening now, according to analyst Ken Doctor, is a stare-down between Broad and Jack Griffin, the CEO of Tribune Publishing who felt threatened by Austin Beutner and had him escorted out of the building last week. That set off a protest letter signed by Broad and 60 other community leaders, and former publisher Tom Johnson’s email on Saturday.
