Wasn't LA Times so anti-union it got firebombed in 1910?
123 years is a long time in publishing,
When Norman resigned as publisher in 1960 to devote full attention to the corporation, his son Otis Chandler took over in that position.
When Otis Chandler became publisher of the Times, the paper’s writing, editing, and editorial policy underwent a striking metamorphosis, noticeably under editor Nick Williams (1958–71). Moving from its tradition of promoting conservative causes, the Times emphasized a more balanced and comprehensive approach to journalism. This was accomplished in large part by upgrading and enlarging its staff, opening new Times bureaus elsewhere in the United States and abroad, and developing thorough coverage of important events.
This reads to me more as going from openly conservative to "I don't talk about politics".
Unless you can show it moving explicitly left, I think it's still fair to tag the business as ant-union and with a bone to pick in how it lays out its reporting.

From the media bais checker:
LA Times (Los Angeles Times) – Bias and Credibility
These media sources have a slight to moderate liberal bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by appealing to emotion or stereotypes) to favor liberal causes. These sources are generally trustworthy for information but may require further investigation. See all Left-Center sources.
Overall, we rate the LA Times Left-Center Biased based on editorial positions that favor the left and High for factual reporting due to a clean fact-check record.Bias Rating: LEFT-CENTER

It is pretty good.
Anytime I see a news story from a site I do not recognise, I see what this site has to say about them.
I treat them like a snopes for news publishers.
I heard their old CEO made some problematic tweets back in 1868 too. We should boycott!
Yeah, I remember it it like it was just yesterday! 113 years ago the Republicans were the progressives. A lot can change in that time.
