Welcome to the Los Angeles Times News Quiz, where this week’s 10 handcrafted, California-leaning, multiple choice questions mine my colleagues’ work (in print and online) from the last seven days.

This time around, I’m quizzing you on a new Grammy Awards record, Trump’s first appointee, a late-night beef with Elon Musk, a suspicious discovery at Los Angeles International Airport and an unfortunate faux pas by the makers of a doll promoting the new “Wicked” movie.

If those stories sound familiar, answering these correctly should be a total breeze. Are you ready to have some fun? I am. Let’s get started.
