I'll say this though: the Tribune Company is bleeding ink probably fast enough that the offer by Mark Cuban to buy the Chicago Cubs from the Tribune Company may not be as far-fetched as everyone thinks. Don't be surprised that the Tribune Company sells the Los Angeles Times, Baltimore Sun and the Chicago Cubs all at the same time by the end of 2006 so it can concentrate to reviving the Chicago Tribune.

Interesting times!
I happened to see a spokesman for the Pew Research Center on CSPAN the other day, and he was explaining that the Times-Mirror company sold their polling agency [when they sold the LA Times, Balto Sun,etc] and the Pew Charitable Trust decided to fund it. It is 'non-partisan' 501(3)c corp and reports "in an unbiased manner"!
In case anyone has any idea that the Pew conducted polls are impartial, just consider their pedigree.
