I've replaced the full citation in Dan's posting with the FR link to the Comical's hit piece (er, article).

I thought from the headline this was ESPN's Dan Patrick

[So Cal Rocket]

They will be held accountable, in an entirely appropriate manner, in due course.

Sounds like the Chronicle and Mr. Feldstein will be hearing from Mr. Patrick's lawyer.

I know it's a different Dan Patirck, but didja ever notice the similarity between Dan Patrick and the Kingsford Charcoal guy?

 it was probably sarcasm)

[weegee]

I can see how this is going to play out...

[Dog Gone]

The Chronicle piece was something I'd expect to see from a high school newspaper without any adult supervision.

Dan Patrick is not my favorite Houston conservative, but he deserved better than this cheap shot from Houston's hometown Pravda.

Go Git 'em Dan!

[Petronski]

The ESPN guy?

Houston / Media Bias Bullzogby double ping.

G-d I despise the Legacy Media.

What's the appraised value of a glass house (post-stone tossing)?

"Somebody needs to remind the Chronicle of their own taxing situation.

http://www.houstonpress.com/issues/1999-10-14/news/insider.html

The offices and printing plant of the Houston Chronicle at 801 Texas lie smack in the middle of the booming west side of downtown, across the street from the reborn, glittering Rice Lofts and its stylish bars and eateries. Homeowners in similarly upgrading inner-city areas have learned the hard way that when tear-downs next door are replaced by spiffy new condos, the fallout is soaring property taxes.

For Houston's self-proclaimed leading information source and champion of downtown revitalization, the gentrification experience has been far less traumatic on its pocketbook.

Two years ago, the Harris County Appraisal District valued the Chronicle's block-long 12-lot property at $18.2 million. Last year, the appraised value slipped to $15.5 million, even as the surrounding blocks exploded with development. Two months ago, after the paper's agents argued their case before a three-person appraisal review board, that value was further lowered to $11.1 million, a more than 40 percent reduction over two years, which adds up to more than a quarter-million dollars in property tax savings. At the rate things are going, the Hearst-owned paper may eventually get its appraisal down to where it claims it should be: a bargain-basement $6.4 million for a prime block of downtown real estate.

paid subscription numbers –continue to plummet like a stone.

Here in Tucson the "RED" Star's subscription numbers are falling so fast that they are giving away "Free" subscriptions just to keep up their advertising rates. People are literally FED UP!. BTW the advertising pays for the production of the paper. The street/subscription price is pure gravy.

Dan Talks to City Councilman from Frienswood!

A year ago, Dan Patrick held the Chronicle's feet to the fire for a story they did about a young man who died in the service of his country. The Chronicle tried to use it to make a statement against President Bush.

"Chronicallybiased.com - Founder and publisher Dan Patrick"

You don't suppose this is in any way an attempt by the Chronicle at revenge?

Will the Comical one day discover that FACTS are stubborn things? Naaaaaaah....
