Chicago Tribute

John Saul mentioned this to me on Wednesday. I hadn’t heard this part of the Blagojevich ballyhoo so I went and looked it up.
Situations like this would really make me proud of being with a such a newspaper – my rebellious side would kick in, and I would want to be part of standing up to guys like this. Although it does sound like there wasn’t much knowledge of it around the editorial room…
Update:
Sounds like the buck may have stopped with the owner of the Chicago Tribune and/or his advisor. The Tribune staff mostly heard about it once it hit the papers.
Hard to be rebellious if you don’t know there’s anything to rebel against.
