Excellent. And let us hope such great news follows from the other anti-American, socialist-supporting propoganda rags like the NYT, LAT, etc.

Tribune has been a major force in American journalism for more than 150 years. The company’s market-leading newspapers include the Los Angeles Times and Chicago Tribune. Snicker....

What was Sam Zell thinking when he bought Tribune Co.?

"Tribune Prepares for Bankruptcy Filing"Well, it looks like being the official printer of the DNC isn't quite as financially lucrative as expected.
