By all means they should then buy it, if for nothing else than to pi$$ off all the people that don’t like the idea.

That terrible “rigid ideology” of personal and economic freedom. Those ideas have no place in the USSA.

Wouldn’t that be great if they did buy the Tribune? What if they decided to buy the New York Times? There would be two large newspapers for conservative Americans to read.

"Two California legislators also said they opposed the sale: I believe newspapers are a public trust, state Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg told Patrick McGreevy and Chris Megerian of the Los Angeles Times one of the newspapers that Tribune would presumably include in such a sale." My contempt for the left seems to grow every day. Public trust? Seriously? Then start reporting like it, and do it now. Respect the conservative viewpoint. Write stories that accurately reflect the conservative point of view. Employ conservative editorial writers and give them prominent positions on the page. End the blackout of reporting on Democrat scandals.
Public trust? My sweet hind end.

This is funny but this is exactly the right thing for conservatives to be doing provided they actually start replacing the liberals at these papers. I’ve always been puzzled that the same individuals that can raise billions for political campaigns can’t do the basic thing of buying a stake in the media which will do more to enhance the political position than buying tv ads. Having a media organization constantly making your case is like one endless ad.

This sale would create another Rupert Murdoch, and make papers like the LA Times and Chicago Tribune look more like Fox News and the New York Post, their letter says. Some 25″ people showed up at a protest Wednesday at Tribune Tower in Chicago <<
Hey, wait a minute, didn't you libs tell us over and over again that the Chicago Tribune is a "ultra conservative" newspaper and that having such a "conservative" paper endorse Obama was a major coup and "big upset" for your side because the paper "always" takes "conservative" positions?
If they're ALREADY "conservative", why is your side so upset about the possibility of the paper being bought by conservatives?

I canceled my subscription to the L.A. Times in the early 60s because it was nothing but a mouthpiece for the communist party!

the LATimes has been unreadably biased in its “news” columns, for years.
the quicker it is either taken over and made into a respectable piece of journalism .. the better. Or else, the quicker it is permitted to go bankrupt, so others can enter the marketplace and build respectable newspapers worth reading, the better. (The second approach might be easier...?)

If, as we’re told, more and more people don’t read newspapers anyway, why aren’t the Koch Bros buying CNN or a broadcast network instead?

The Kochs would be great owners. We should all write to Tribune urging them to sell to the Koch brothers.

“Public trust” my aunt Fannie! Only in the sense that “public trust” = propaganda arm of the DNC and socialist causes.
