A Look Back: 2009 Passings: Los Angeles Times Orange County Edition

Irvine -- In our end-of-the-year edition today (28 December 2009),
Subversity, a KUCI public affairs program, looks back at 2009. It is
customary to reflect on those who have passed away in the year. We
did a show on Michael Jackson as a queer icon when the pop icon died,
and two programs on the elimination of an important UCI resource, SAAS, the
Student Academic Advanced Services, and over the months, many shows
on the slow -- and lingering death -- of the California Master Plan
for Higher Education and of the University of California as a public
institution.

Today, however, we look back another passing, that of a once-important OC
institution.

In this Subversity look back at 2009, we repeat an airing of our
March 9, 2009 remembrance of the glorious days of the Los Angeles
Times OC edition, with long-time Times reporter David Reyes, and
observer John Earl, now publisher of OC Voice, now "the Green Voice for the Orange Coast."
The show airs 9 a.m. today on KUCI, 88.9 FM in Orange County,
California, and is simulcast via kuci.org.
