For the record - Sept. 9, 2014

Minimum wage: An article in the Sept. 6 LATExtra section about complaints that the $13.25 wage proposed by Mayor Eric Garcetti was too low quoted a Los Angeles Workers Assembly statement saying $15 “is actually the minimum necessary for basic human needs in human dollars.” It should have said, “It is actually the minimum necessary for basic human needs in current dollars.”

Home show hosts: In the Saturday section on Sept. 6, an article about hosts of home improvement television shows incorrectly referred to Tom Silva as the host of “This Old House.” Kevin O’Connor is the host and Silva is the general contractor on the show.
