Welcome to the Los Angeles Times News Quiz. This week’s 10 California-focused, multiple-choice questions, inspired by the work of my colleagues, are fresh out of the oven and ready to test your recall of the last seven days.
This time around the topics we’re tackling include an actor who feels her voice has been copied for a new version of ChatGPT, the shenanigans of a performance artist named Reckless Ben, the Trump-related film “The Apprentice” and a lonely — but very busy — fire station in the desert.
All you need to do is keep up on the news of the week and answer these questions correctly. Are you ready to have some fun? I am. Let’s get started.
Before we do, two quick things:
The first is a helpful hint: If you’d like to have a link to the News Quiz sent to you each week, consider signing up for our Essential California newsletter, which is beamed right into your inbox each Monday through Saturday morning. That way, when Saturday morning rolls around — boom! — it’ll be right there waiting for you. Think of it as curbside delivery. No tip required.
The second is a request for help — in the form of your feedback. If you have thoughts on how we could improve the weekly News Quiz experience, stick around (and by that I mean scroll down) after this week’s quiz and share your thoughts. Don’t forget to click the green “submit” button when you’re finished.
