Indeed. But it also marked the beginning of the end under the boneheaded and greedy ownership of Zell, followed by Ferro and now Alden. The entire city will pay for it.

What is she talking about???

[Gregory Royal Pratt @royalpratt]

Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Chicago violence: “The reality is, our city is safe. I stand by that.”

Some areas have "challenges," but not all, she said. Last night's mass shooting happened in a house, not on the street, she said.

I hope Chicago never forgets Michael Ferro's craven decision to sell his Tribune stock to Alden Global Capital. This man has done unbelievable damage to two major metropolitan newspapers in one city and dozens of others across the country. What a legacy

January 15 is my last day at the Tribune. It’s been an amazing run. I’m so grateful to all the wonderful reporters and editors who helped me along the way. I regret not being able to find a buyer for the newspaper but otherwise go out with my head high and my boots on.

Is Chicago out of control? Massive looting last night downtown. Do any of our leaders have answers?

So happy to welcome @spjourno from @DePaulJOUR and @DLWilber83 from @WeberStateU to the BGA team as six-month interns. This program wouldn't exist w/o @poolcar4 and @garyjmarx. We have always been lucky to have great interns and hope the trend continues! https://t.co/NAZobe7NRy

Young poets now delivering beautiful words from the makeshift stage. But one speaker did not mince words: “ain’t you tired of genocide in your name?” he asked white protestors. He said protestors now have “our knee” on the neck of white power. “Finish off what you started!”
