Arguing against that protestation is a record of having endorsed the Republican candidate in every presidential election since at least 1872, and of supporting Republican candidates for the U.S. Senate in all but two or three cases.

But there's another way to look at that record and the paper's close identification with the GOP. Says Dold: "It was a great advantage when we rousted the last Republican mayor of Chicago , when we supported Dick Devine over the Republican state's attorney, when we called for Nixon's resignation." In each case, the Tribune's reputation as a "Republican newspaper" gave extra potency to its counterintuitive action.

Simply amazing. They supported Hoover over FDR? Goldwater over Johnson? Yet, they tell us, this is a good thing, because on those rare occasions (three whole times since 1872!!!! Wow!) when they attack a Republican, the fact that it comes from such an otherwise Republican hack space means it carries extra weight. I'm sure the Chicago Tribune's calling for Nixon's resignation was the straw that broke the camel's back.

If writing this piece of shit isn't the low point of this halfwit's existence, there is certainly a very hot part of journalism Hell reserved for him.
