Gonzo cuts his news conf short
Questions on firings shorten Gonzales news conference

By Jeff Coen
Tribune staff reporter
Published March 27, 2007, 9:42 PM CDT
A scheduled 15-minute news conference with Atty. Gen. Alberto Gonzales was quickly cut short in Chicago on Tuesday, with Gonzales leaving the room after just three questions about the controversial dismissal of a group of U.S. attorneys.

Gonzales was at the Dirksen Federal Building to talk about a national campaign to promote the safety of children on the Internet. Instead, he again found himself defending his actions in the firings, which some say were politically motivated.
