Media Accountability?

  • Chicago Tribune columnist Eric Zorn owes the citizens of Chicago, including its police officers, a column about an impending federal trial in a civil lawsuit brought by attorneys representing Stanley Wrice.

    Zorn owes the public this column because he needs to explain whether he thinks Wrice is truly innocent of the vicious rape and severe burning of Karen Byron in 1982, a crime so vicious that Wrice was sentenced to 100 years in prison even though Byron survived the attack and the treatments she received at the Loyola Burn Center.

    Zorn has never held back making known his opinion about the conduct of detectives on dozens of so-called wrongful convictions going back decades, including the two main ones involving the Wrice investigation, retired detectives Jack Byrne and Pete Dignan. In fact, Zorn’s career at the Tribune could reasonably be described as being the most outspoken voice in the Chicago media claiming false convictions based upon corrupt police.

    And those articles throughout the years from Zorn and his cohorts at the Tribune often come out on the verge of a trial in these cases, often precipitating a settlement by a city guided as much by media pressure as any pesky rules of evidence.
Go read Preib's entire article.

While this article is true. Is that all this guy ever does is write long winded articles about shit that has very little to do with a daily beat cops job. How about Agatha Christie focuses at least 5 minutes on the contract negotiations instead of getting paid by our does to pursue his hobby.

Eric Zorn:
A smug and smarmy shit-ass...

How much money has been kicked back to him
over the years for using his editorial
bully pulpit to spring murdering and
raping violent criminals and having them
turned loose on an unsuspecting public?

"The Police are what's wrong with Chicago..."

I can't stand to see Zorn's face much less read his column. We got rid of the Communist Tribune a few years ago. I know if I look at it, it will aggravate me. It's just the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party.

You'd be hard-pressed to find two finer homicide detectives than Jack Byrne and Pete Dignan. I enthusiastically vouch for their integrity, courage and expertise,

Gone are the days when two old friends and managing editors at the Tribune, George deLama and Hanke Gratteau could keep a delusional Eric Zorn from writing such trash. Also kudos to Bill Crawford. All three left the Tribune before it became a dying clusterfuck.

The media is full of narcissists.

No way anyone in the the media will ever sincerely apologize for anything. Any demands for an apology will be met with a snarky, passive-aggressive response that will undoubtedly justify their wrong-ness

I wonder how many pairs of pants that Eric
'Mr. Shiny Seats' Zorn has worn out performing his duties
as a tabletop computer warrior. He carved out a niche for
himself, and like you say, calculated the release of his
articles in an attempt to influence outcomes. With newspaper
circulation on the wane, I just wonder if his superiors gave
him the green light in an attempt to boost anemic revenues.
These are cheap shots.

Marty....your otherwise excellent article that makes a legitimate cry for actions of justice on behalf of our hardworking detectives was marred by a single mistake that could jeopardize the possibility that it ever crosses the Mayor’s desk. Everyone knows that mayors have gatekeepers...those individuals who sift through hundreds of documents and whittle them down to the few that the mayor may actually make time to read. Historically, the Chief of Staff is the Mayor’s main gatekeeper. The COS is not a pickle named Claussen. His name is Classen. And if you think that’s not a big deal, just consider how much you enjoy being referred to as Mr. Probe. Taking the time to get the little things right, especially in written correspondence, reflects attention to detail that demands respect. For the sake of all of us that you represent, please do a better job of it moving forward.

To the 1st poster-you do not get it. This has everything to do with a “daily beat cop,” you just can’t connect the dots. Preib is the only person who has stood up to the anti-cop media and is the only thing that’s slowed down the Loevys’ and PLO’s path to over 1 billion in outstanding “liability” from fake wrongful convictions, and slowed their control over Springfield and City Hall. Without Preib doing this we’d have a zero funded pension, weeks of Burge curriculum at CPS, a giant anti-Burge monument and no political leverage for a contract increase at all. You’d be operating under directives written completely by the ACLU and would be raising a family in a City with no hope at all. I can’t stand lazy kids on this job who can’t read and think for themselves. I understand why my neighbor or non-police family members don’t see it, but it’s your job to educate them. It’s people like you that stood by and let this happen, so when you get fired or worse for doing your job and can’t understand how it happened, read Preib’s books and posts and you’ll understand.

The contract, pension and pay are issues that are more of a concern to us than anything else. The FOP doesn't need to go to war with the Trib. The Sun Times sells 200,000 papers in an area of 4 million. Not really relevant in 2019.

The Tribune used to be a solid conservative newspaper, the opposite of the Slum Times. Those days are LONG OVER. Both papers have been losing readers steadily, but the Tribune has rejected their core values in the last few years. Its not that it was ever pro police, but at least they usually gave actual FACTS in the narratives published in accounts involving the police. They now run the same slanted BULLSHIT that the other rag publishes.
In trying to appeal to the left, it has steadily hired more and more idiots like Zorn, Huppke, Dahleen etc. Glad to cancel my subscription. Good fucking riddance!

Shit that has very little to do with a “beat cop’s job”... are you kidding me? Are you a police officer? Wait, a house mouse at 35th St. doesn’t count, nor does the dog in CAPS or working inside for that matter.
If you did a single bit of police work in your career you’d understand what’s happening to “the police” and the personal attack the media in general, but in this case what the local media has done to destroy the police officers and detectives in Chicago.
If you have an issue with the contract, and you should because We all do, voice it to the Union, but DONT EVER minimize what happened to the officers & detectives before you son.

You can probable find fuck stick Zorn singing "Michael Row the Boat Ashore" at the Old Town School with that other old liberal Mary Schmich. This dick recently wrote an article explaining that Illinois isn't a tax and spend state and that your state taxes are actually low. Of course he conveniently doesn't calculate the newly passed taxes OR the local tax burden which taken with the state taxes are driving people from the state. Zorn never saw a tax he didn't love or a cop he didn't blame.

Eric Zorn is mentally ill. Besides being a full-blown leftist and documented liar, the guy is bat-shit crazy. If you look up: 'Barking Mad Moonbat', you'll find Eric Zorn's photo and biography.

He even provides the proof that he should be residing in a Padded Cell in his recent column where he gives his reasons on switching from being a 'Die-hard' Cubs Fan to a White Sox Fan.

And no, it's not Donald Trump or the Ricketts family support of President Trump, though he touches on those subjects. His 'reason' for abandoning the Cubbies is because Tom Ricketts signed a TV deal with.... Sinclair Broadcasting.

You read that right, in Zorn's twisted mind Sinclair Broadcasting is the go-to Media Conglomerate of Nazis, White Supremacists, Islamaphobes, the Ku Klux Klan, Homophobes, and the mean guy in the 7th Grade who gave Zorn noogies every other day. And he just can't abide by any of that, so the Cubs are dead to him.

Okay, I made the part about the 7th grade up.

In any case, it's plain to see that Eric Zorn is mentally ill.

I gather Mr. Zorn wasn't too pleased with the FOP's blog entry. From the first response, one which was lodged at 12:15, I am assuming Mr. Zorn was up late last evening, awaiting an opportunity to assail Preib for daring to contradict him over Zorn's unyielding support for turning hardened criminals back on to the streets. I don't know which is worse: Zorn's dishonest columns or the fact he is so thin-skinned he trolls a police blog to continue anonymously attacking police.

To poster 6/8/2019 1215 I totally disagree with your statement. What Preib writes about has everything to do with law enforcement, especially in todays investigative in virement. One of the reasons (there are many) why there is virtually no co-operation with follow up investigators is because of columnist such as Zorn who constantly writes negative articles regarding law enforcement. Look at recent Police Involved incidents where the use of deadly force was used. How many positive articles have there been written such use of force. Has Zorn or in fact has anyone else written a positive article where there was use of deadly force by the Police? Yes I agree that Preib has a passion regarding the Wrongful Convection Movement. HAVE YOU EVER ASKED PREIB WHY HE HAS THIS PASSION? Preib understands that the wrongful conviction movement has lead to very serious problems that confronts Law Enforcement today. Preib has taken the fight against some very powerful Law Firms in this City who specializes in suing the City due to the actions of members of the CPD. The Wrongful Conviction Movement has been the catalyst for the on slot number of law suites against department members. How many law suits does it take for a Department Member to say," That is it, from now on I am only doing the bare minimal. I am going to just answer my radio assignments. I am not going to be aggressive." Do you honestly believe that because of this on slot of law suites haven't has this effect? Another result of the Wrongful Conviction Movement is the ease the City settle these law suites? How many Department Members have been sued for DOING THIER JOB AND AS A RESULT OF DOING THIER JOB HAVE BEEN SUED AND THE CITY SETTLED WITHOUT THE OFFICER(S) BEING ABLE TO DEFEND THEMSELVES. As a direct result of the City settling these law suites and the Officer(s) who could not defend themselves now have that on their permeate personal record. Look at the totally disrespect for Law Enforcement in today's society. In part, this disrespect for Law Enforcement is a direct of the Wrongful Conviction Movement. How many articles does it take for a person to read about all these Wrongful Conviction Cases and develop a anti-police attitude? As a direct result of the Wrongful Conviction Movement then Governor George Ryann commuted every death row sentence to life in prisonment. By comminuting every death row inmates death sentence how many offenders got the nothing is going to happen to me anyhow so the next time they get involved with the police instead of fearing the Police then show outward contempt. Here is another result of the Wrongful Conviction Movement: The election of Kim Foxx as Cook County States Attorney was a result in part to the Wrongful Conviction Movement. She used the Wrongful Conviction Movement as part of her platform to reform the Criminal Justice System. As a direct result in the Wrongful Conviction Movement grew the Torture Commission. The Torture Commission is recommending many cases were offenders killed Police Officers and had their convictions overturned. The one that comes to mind is one the Wilson Brothers being freed from Prison and it looks like he is going to win the Ghetto Lottery> The other issue I take with your post is when you criticize him about not writing contract negotiations. Have you ever heard of any Union giving it's membership a daily briefing on contract negotiations? Did you criticize Dean Angelo, Mark Donahue, Bill Nolan and John Denien, when they were presidents and their lack of candor during contract negotiations? I was a FOP Representative during the John Denien regime and I can remember going to meetings and one of the biggest complaints was that the Union was not giving he membership any indications on contract negotiations.

Knowledge/REAL education, facts, discernment
and the ability to think and reason for yourself
contrary to what the "trend setters" say, makes
you a mean, insensitive some-kind-of-phobe
and a RACIST.

Fuck Zorn and all of his gleefully willfully ignorant,
mis-mothered/un-fathered, upright society hating
fellow travelers.

"Zorn is from Michigan and lives in Old Irving …" Yes. I know. Looked it up a while ago, out of curiosity. Public record. Lives in a $500,000 + home! Englewood it ain't! Wifey's a six-figure lib too!
