The Chicago Tribune is a RAG!
Cover, today:

"Bush Pick Vexes Liberals, Women"

Further in, an official rebuttal of the Ethanol study from UC-Berkeley.

Scan the entire contents of the newspaper, not a single mention of DSM, Rovegate, or anything else that might MATTER.

I am not sure a boycott of this waste of paper an ink is worthwhile, being on the heels of the scandal they found themselves in concerning the inflation of sales figures.
What can we do?

1. Uh...Didn't You Get The Memo???
This paper's been a Repugnican rag since the 1850s??

I grew up in Chicago and, while I despise Hollinger, the Sun-Times still is a far better paper than the Tribune. It's not as far right as it used to be...just a corporate tool for the rich and powerful Repugnicans in Chicago.

(BTW...another reason I've also been a lifelong Sox fan)

Don't like the paper? Don't buy it. There's too many of those rags out there.
