This incident leaves the LA Times in an impossible position. How can readers trust anything published under its banner when its owner has demonstrated such willingness to corrupt the paper’s editorial integrity for his own political agenda?

They can't, and shouldn't bother trying.

That's a freedom that the internet provides that too few people exercise. There are more than enough news sources out there, so there's no reason for anyone to ever grant a single one of them a second chance.
