Want to be Mope-rah's Boss?

Seriously. How would you like to have Mope-rah and Steinberg and Sneed all answer to you? It's within reach, right now:
  • Sun-Times Media Group Inc., hurt by declining ad revenues and eroding circulation, said its first-quarter loss deepened to $35.8 million from $4.8 million a year ago.
  • Like other companies in the newspaper industry, Sun-Times Media has been hurt by an ongoing exodus by readers and advertisers to the Internet. "We expect the secular move from print to the Internet to continue probably forever," Freidheim said on a conference call.
  • The results were announced after the close of regular stock market trading. During the session shares dove 24.6 percent, to 52 cents.
$0.52 a share? Fifty-two cents to become a stockholder? Mere pennies to be able to tell Jesse Jackson and Mariotti and even that guy Roeper that they work for you and you pay their salary.

For fifty-two bucks, you can get a hundred shares and Mope-rah probably has to come by and mow your lawn once a summer.

Seriously the assets of the suntimes are begging for a purchase and I am not talking about the reporters. This could actually work.

Wow it(share) cost as much as the paper itself. I'd still be wiping my ass with it(share). Scum-times is officially Slum-times. Mope-rah is going to suck on the government tit live in the projects,park her lexus out front, get a forty and kick it with her peeps if you know what i'm sayin'. Holla!Just keep it real!
Mariotti I got a blow up doll you can perform acts on for your next paycheck. With that single stupid article you wrote you just further alienated half of the city. Now i see those guys selling you rag of a paper trying to unload those papers and people are not buying it. All my family members are die hard Sox fans. They tell me that they would't buy a Scum-times if their lives depended on it.

The Sun Time's saturday did publish a column that questioned Michelle Obama's racist thesis from when she attended Princeton University in which she praised "black seperatism" and Stokley Carmichael.

The thesis is titled "Princeton-Educated Blacks and the Black Community" by Michelle LaVaughn Robinson and can be located at Politco.com.

She is the reason her husband refuses to completely seperate himself from the Reverend Wright.

HMM! Graet thought then we could straighten out this dumbocrat mess of a paper and show the conservative (truth) side to all the spin! They would sell more papers and more advertising!

The commentary about Michelle Obama's racist thesis was written by Christopher Hitchens and can be found at Slate.com.

I knew it was bad when they were delisted. It's over now. $12 million lost per month. Less than a year at most. Cost of fuel and distribution. Bye Bye Sun Times. It was a bad newspaper.

They insulted the intelligence of the intelligence of the readership

With many thanks, I believe the demise of the scum times is partly related to you SCC, at least with coppers. I stopped reading that piece of shit paper a long time ago. Both the Times and Trib need new editors and a new direction in reporting news. Many people are tired of the liberal in-your-face rhetoric.

Thats because the idiots forgot what they were supposed to be selling.....NEWSPAPERS. The pages were supposed to contain the news and in the pages it was acceptable to have a small commentary section. Instead the jackasses forgot what they were selling and now sell COMMENTARYPAPERS which contain very little news and still have an additional commentary section (with crap writings by hack revrends).
