Chicago Tribune "News" Co. FACING BANKRUPTCY !

ALL OVER AMERICA, America's "news" companies ARE FACING MASSIVE financial losses... WHICH OF COURSE SERVES THEM RIGHT, as they have been COMPLICIT in the ECONOMIC LOOTING of America, at the very least since Antonin Scalia and the US Supreme Court STOLE the 2000 presidential election away (NOT from the hapless, pathetic Al Gore, but) from tens of millions of Democratic-candidate voting voters.

As JUST ONE EXAMPLE of how America's "major media" "news" companies HAVE BEEN COMPLICIT in the FINANCIAL LOOTING of America, is the fact that NONE OF THEM have EVER SOUGHT TO _LINK_ President Bush and his corrupt White House with.... THE MASSIVE FINANCIAL FRAUD of ENRON corporation, Enron Chairman and CEO _only_ being BUSH's #1 CAREER CAMPAIGN DONOR through his entire political career!"
(Enron, for example, providing the Bush campaign FREE corporate air travel during the Florida (non-) Recount battle.)

As a SECOND example of how COMPLICITLY CORRUPT the US corporate "media" has been is that NONE OF THEM, have EVER _DEMANDED_ answers for the the NINE BILLION DOLLARS CASH that "went MISSING" in Iraq, within 2-3 weeks of that cash being handed to Bush's "VICEROY" in Iraq, L. Paul Bremer.
(Nor have the stupid American media whores pointed out that "VICEROY" was the designation of the Spanish crown's demigod authorities DURING THE GENOCIDAL Spanish conquistador CONQUESTS of the New World - which DEPOPULATED and ENSLAVED ENTIRE REGIONS of Central- and South America, duh. GREAT, REVEALING job title for a Bush admin. flunky allegedly trying to bring "freedom and democracy" to Iraq... NOT!)

So now, the US corporate media, 8 year partners-in-crime to the Bush-GOP administration's desire to TURN AMERICA BACK into an IGNORANT, ENSLAVED plantation wage-slave population, finds readership down so severely, that those businesses are facing drastic financial losses.

SERVES THEM RIGHT.

Tribune Hires Advisers to Help Stave Off Bankruptcy

Tribune has hired bankruptcy advisers as the ailing newspaper company faces a potential bankruptcy filing, people briefed on the matter said.

The newspaper, which was taken private last year by billionaire investor Samuel Zell, has hired advisers including Lazard and Sidley Austin, one of its longtime law firms, these people said. Tribune has been hobbled by debt related to that sale last year, which has been compounded by the growing drought of advertising for newspapers.

It is only the latest — and biggest — sign of duress for the newspaper industry yet. Several newspaper companies have struggled to cope with declining revenues and mounting debt woes. Tribune has pared back the newsrooms of many of its papers, including The Chicago Tribune, The Los Angeles Times and The Baltimore Sun, and it sold off Newsday to Cablevision’s Dolan family earlier this year.
