A personal 'Firestorm'
Los Angeles Times
|January 06, 2026
In the first book about the Palisades and Eaton fires, MS Now's Jacob Soboroff reflects on covering the disaster that destroyed his childhood home
If journalism is the first draft of history, TV news is a rough, improbable sketch.
As last year's wildfires multiplied, still 0% contained, field reporters — tasked with articulating the unintelligible on camera — grieved alongside Los Angeles in real time.
"What are you supposed to say when the entire community you were born and raised in is wiped off the map, literally burning to the ground before your eyes?" Jacob Soboroff writes in "Firestorm," out in early January ahead of the Palisades and Eaton fires' first anniversary. "I couldn't come up with much."
