The Chicago American was a William Randolph Hearst newspaper- competition directly with NYSlimes, and Chicago Tribune in this case.
This is a great screen take- can it be downloaded so one can read the article?
Written by Gareth Jones, Welsh born reporter for the NYTimes who worked for Lloyd George and sneaked into Ukraine and discovered the Holdomor. His NYTimes boss- Duranty (who was a pervo lunatic, and was controlled by Stalin’s police with films and threats- so wrote constantly there was no famine anywhere in Soviet Union, cause Stalin made him say this). The movie Mr. Jones is phenomenal and horrifying. Jones escaped the clutches of Duranty and Stalin- and approached Hearst at his Welsh Mansion— Hearst saw a way to trash the NYTimes with this reporting. And the NKVD never forgot Jones, murdering him in pre-WWII Manchukuo Japanese Mongolia- tracked him down.
