Skolnick COMMENTARY #021 ========================
[CfD Editor -- I neither necessarily believe nor disbelieve either all or portions of the following.]
[The following is a transcript of a recorded phone message put out by a group in Chicago called "Citizens' Committee to Clean Up the Courts." (312) 731-1100 and (312) 731-1505.]
Hi! Sherman Skolnick, Citizens' Committee to Clean Up the Courts [CCCC], 9800 South Oglesby.
Can a leopard change its spots?
Over the years the *Chicago Tribune* has been a crooked, anti-labor, discriminatory operation. Starting in the 19th century, they got lucrative rights to newsprint and pulp production in Canada through a charter from the highly-secretive Jesuits and the King of England. To this day the *Tribune* is tied to the Royal Family and says nothing about them being in worldwide financing of dope traffic through Hong Kong and the Cayman islands.
In the 1930s, the *Tribune* was facing a labor dispute. So, they brought in Al Capone as a "labor consultant." He terrorized the workers.
Since about 1910, the *Tribune* used a family of criminals originally from Chicago -- the Annenbergs(?) and their descendants -- even now, to control the circulation department.
In years ago when there were almost a dozen Chicago papers, the Annenbergs used shoot-outs to "snuff out" competitors. The Annenbergs were major stockholders in the long-time criminal enterprise called the American National Bank here. They have other news fakers in their pocket, such as Walter Jacobson.
The *Tribune* was known for running items with snide remarks -- anti-black, anti-Jew.
Once a private company, the *Tribune* company had a dispute between the major owners like the Marshall Fields and the Rockefellers *and* minority owners.
Chicago federal district judge Crowley was blackmailed into favoring the big shots. Although one of the youngest on the federal bench, he soon thereafter resigned.
The Rockefellers and such wanted to be bought out so, in 1981, the *Tribune* company stock went public. Some thought that they toned down, thereafter, their highly prejudiced stories. Oh yeah?
To fatten their stockholders, the *Tribune* vowed to dump their organized workers and smash the union. Since ensued a labor dispute. One night the *Tribune* sent in their vicious guards with attack dogs to rip the workers off the machines. To continue production, the Tribune brought in "scabs" -- mostly white, rural, southern workers (at half the wages) -- for the highly automated new plant called "The Freedom Center." The *Tribune* used their advance, inside information to blackmail a Chancery Division judge to grant an injunction restricting picketing near what savvy folks call, "The Slavery Center."
Rightfully, it can't be called the *Chicago* Tribune since as little as 15% of their total circulation is inside the city limits. With its media octopus worldwide, it should be called "The Multinational Lie Machine."
To try to boost city circulation, the *Tribune* runs items talking down their nose at blacks -- as if all blacks are dopers engaged in drive-by shootings.
About 1984, joke faker Mike Royko left the *Sun Times* and went to the *Chicago Tribune*. The *Sun Times* sued the *Tribune*, *but* the *Tribune* had advance, inside data on a Chancery Division judge taking bribes. And so, the case was steered to him. The *Tribune* blackmailed the judge into ruling in favor of "The Slavery Center" at the Tribune Tower.
And the *Tribune* company newslords have peddled false stories that were really political assassinations. Such as of Chicago's first black mayor, Harold Washington, died of a heart attack because he was overweight. *Oh yeah?* The story should have been that Harold Washington was murdered with a poisoned cup of coffee. Some of the doctors told the media fakers that the mayor was poisoned -- *but*, the press invoked "national security," contending it would cause riots. Well, what about the old statement, "Let the truth be told, 'though the heavens crumble," huh?
