Former Media, Now Dart Employees
Evidently, you CAN buy good media coverage:
- Off topic tip... After laying off over 2 dozen Commanders to "budget cuts" Sheriff Tom Dart hires two more former Chicago Tribune reporters. Joe Ryan and Matt Walberg tribune investigative reporter, now "policy advisor" for Sheriff. Dart has 14 million settlement for sexual assaults on staff while Tribune completely ignores story.
If we aren't mistaken, one of those two was actually the legman for Kass, doing legit investigative work for a while. But as the media slowly dies a well deserved death, we suppose a steady job with some sort of insurance and maybe a retirement plan begins to look pretty good.

I wonder if Kass will write an article about that... I think John is gonna retire soon...
Holy haymaker batman, 55 degrees sunday with good weather all next week. We all know what that means. Keep an eye open for irish hooligans and amish kids gone wild.
The media is never hypocritical.
Little Tommy has quite a fiefdom going on there.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Create an economy that is so weak any opposition will sell their soul for a job. That’s how you create a corruption machine. Democrats, creating chaos since the 1800’s.
This may be flattery but you guys *are* the media these days. If there weren't alternatives that were closer to sources and giving facts that don't back up their narrative they'd still be doing what they always did and making tons of money doing it.
$14 M dollars of tax payers money being paid out because little Tommy can't control the inmates in the zoo. Another secret kept close to the vest by the local media. Wear your "Fake News" label right up front so we can all look, point and laugh at you. You deserve it.
What use is the First Amendment when the press can be bought for can of bacon grease?
Trib just got a new editor tasked with "realigning" the news operation...layoffs comng, these two just smarter than the average rodent...
Tier 2 pension sucks part of reason no one wants the job
Is "Trustee 1" in the Patrick Doherty indictment still employed by Toupee Tommy? ie - Mike Carberry?
Policy advisor?
DilDart has been sheriffing for how long now, 14 years?
Understanding that DilDart doesn’t have any sheriffing or law enforcement background, guess he finally needs someone to tell him if cell wanking and pizza privileges or both were good choices.
No backbone DilDart allows frivolous lawsuits to be settled without a challenge, without defending his depleted, lower tier staff. Hmmmm.
Prickwrinkle obviously gave him the nod to add to his already bloated administration staff.
He must of had to offer her something for that favor, plus the two new hires now have to show a positive dedication to her.
Could it have been for his dedication to duty in clearing up the case of the stolen, vandalized and abandoned County suv that was found with KmmmFxxx2016 campaign materials inside ? They buried that story real quick.
With three pensions in the bag, adding some last minute hires seems right being a tradition for early exits with 2 years left until the next election for that office, it could be coming time to bail. Burke trial set for late 2020, Blago out, dwindling Ward support. DilDart is a sore thumb in that Trilogy of Terror Prickwrinkle built. It could be better, just ask her.
Maybe Spoileretti Fioretti will take over CC Sheriff if it’s not gifted to Holt already.
Saw the nbc news last night. Why are they making a federal case out of the one car accident that happened a couple of years ago?
The have Lovey and Lovey, the aclu and god knows who else involved in lawsuits, freedom of information requests etc...
It’s the biggest thing since Blago’s return! ;)
Absolutely fcking amazing considering #metoo that hundreds of woman were sexually assaulted inside jail while only media coverage was suntimes page 7 after 14 million settlement. The most sued/ incompetent Sheriff in history and the press says nothing. Not to menton the 38 inmates deaths in CC jail since 2016. Just amazing he can use tax payer funds to pay for lapdog press.
We thought Dart was a Fart but he had us fooled because it is evident he is a Piece of SHIT!
Suntimes Mark Brown wife Hanke who of course has big job with Dart was in Chicago magazine praising Dart for 'ending solitary'. The only problem was they chained problem inmates to tables for hours a day. The article quickly changed questioning whether chaining someone to a table for 12 hours was more humane than putting them in cell. The inmates wanted the chaines off and a cell. But it was all about the propaganda to say we ended solitary.

Over-under shot-killed-robbed-carjacked? The animals will be on the hunt people are worried about corona virus what about this "savage virus," that the mayor has absolutely zero cure for? Ahh we have a cure conceal carry you vs the animals put them down a dirt nap will cure them all!
What happened to Dart merit board fcckup that was going to cost 100 million. Did we just unknowingly pay through weed tax or something?
Jim Voves who moderates that 19th ward Facebook group posted he was threatened when he linked the article about Sheriff taking inmates on field trip to children's museum. Nothing about Sheriff on his postings lately. Wonder if he getting heat again.
Sheehan budget was 385 million in 05. Dart is 645 million while down 1400 Deputy positions. Great fiscal managment considering we could have over 1000 more officers on bloody chicago streets.
If Dart said the local media is garbage as reported in paper on hot mic few yrs back. Why would he think the are qualified for the positions. Rhetorical question of course. Notice all his media hires/relatives are white. At least the black reporters dont kiss his ass.
Ironically Tom has messed up that office so much nobody wants it. Good way of keeping his job. Remember when he made Time 100 they were pumping him up for Mayor. Lol
Tom Shaer is there too. And no one knows what he's doing and why he's getting paid!
The media for years ripped Daley, Stroger, Sheehan for patronage hiring. Now Dart has over 400 shakman exempt positions and suddenly the media cares nothing about patronage when in benefits them. The only decent reporter left in Chicago is Brad Edwards. Dart attemps to kiss his ass but Edwards has at least reported some of the mess, like all the jail bus riots and the fact the Sheriff waited months before letting parents know EP doc didn't vaccinate.
Sheriff Dart 2018 campaign manager was fired for making multiple racist slurs 150k post at Daley Center. Eddie a real two-faced racist POS. Apparently media wasn't interest in that either.
It appears the fart snitching on judge backfired. The mother of girl asked Judge to do it. Made her sit in a holding area for few minutes. WOW. BIG DEAL
Cook County Sherriff doesn't patrol Chicago much.
Dart has to hire somebody to clean his sorry ass up and make an attempt to have him look presentable and not like the turd he really is.
loved the story that came out of the County Jail a few years back and was done up in a Irish blog called the IRISH SAVANT, seems Tommy besides having a prisoner garden program to raise veggies he had also a animal husbantry unit going rabbits pigeons and chickens, seems that one or two of the ""guests "" in County got caught screwing the chickens and that ended said program, i belive it, never heard about it again,any one out there who could enlighten us readers??
