It’s like the Tribune has decide to go “Full Onion” and forgot to tell the workers. It’s comically flawed, that’s the humor. I can’t wait!

To be fair I’ve always found Bruce Dold to be a standup guy- whether or not I’ve agreed with all the Trib editorials. I wish him the best in an increasingly challending arena.

From the Tribune:
“I think a lot of what we’ve done on the editorial page has been in support of the best reporting from our newsroom,” Dold said.
Really?

Dold has moved to the right during his career, just as has the GOP.
