Eric Zorn adds his name to Chicago Tribune’s ‘tremendous loss of talent’ – Robert Feder

"The impending stampede of stars from the Tribune was triggered by the acquisition last month of parent company Tribune Publishing by Alden Global Capital, a New York-based hedge fund known for severe cost-cutting at newsrooms across the country."

They all should go including Kass who supported Lori. Stevens, Chapman, racist dahleen and Rex are an insult and embarrassment to journalism. All they have been doing for years is to make up lies about Trump and do the bidding of the democrat machine administration all over the USA.

Zorn is/was nothing but a joke who couldn’t write a decent line on a bathroom stall.

He will be quickly forgotten.

Eric, while you’re at this quitting routine, why don’t you see if you can talk Rex and Dahleen into accompanying you into the sunset. We would all appreciate it and it would be the first time for most of us to thank you for anything you have ever done.

Zorn is almost at retirement age and getting one of the most lucrative buyout packages of any Tribune employee. Shed no tears.

Good sign, maybe the Trib will try to honestly earn and occupy the hugely under served conservative market that exists right under their noses. God knows they’d have no competition in this state/city, seems like a no-brainer to go after and not piss off that market sector again.

So, the rats are finally leaving the ship…. Other than Kass, the Tribune hasn’t had an honest journalist for years…. Really, it’s humorous that he would reap anything in a “buy-out”. What a crock…. Call it what it is… Money to get you out quietly.

Zorn has been doing clown Rich Miller’s bidding for years. Rich miller is nothing but a Madigan tool.
