Los Angeles Times Business Reporter Wins Loeb Award

The Los Angeles Times received the Gerald Loeb award on Tuesday night for “Wheel of Fortune,” Ken Bensinger’s series on Buy Here Pay Here car dealers.

Bensinger’s series beat out two Wall Street Journal entries and one from the New York Times. It was his second Loeb award, which was established in 1957 by the late founding partner of E.F. Hutton & Co.
