Goldstein Exits L.A. Times
THE BIG PICTURE CLOSES: Longtime L.A. Times entertainment journalist Patrick Goldstein, who started as a music free-lancer at the paper and later went on to edit the “Pop Eye” and “Big Picture” columns, is leaving with today’s final story, in which he laments the lack of mavericks and risk-takers in today’s Hollywood, while extolling Spike Lee. “I’ve blown plenty of calls.
