Featured Headline: In a sign that Long Beach’s parking program is inspiring others throughout Southern California; the Daily News, the conservative newspaper that mostly covers issues in The Valley, has an editorial praising the city’s initiative. With just a couple of paragraphs warning of the challenges of removing car parking, the News spends most of the time wistfully describing a program designed to keep people outside in the beautiful Southern California weather.
